I don’t think it is necessarily bad grammer, maybe it is obsolete? Keep in mind I am not a native speaker.
“Risen” in this case is not a verb but acts more like an adjective, “the one who has risen”. I always interpret sentences like this as “He is the one who has risen.”
They’re quoting the KJV of the Bible, it’s incorrect in modern language, but I found this:
“It’s an archaic use of English which conjugates verbs of motion with be in present perfect, in much the same way as French still does. The statement is the equivalent of “Christ has risen” and is stating a present-perfect fact.”
That looks like cast iron, i have never been able to get my cast completely nonstick, and I have 2 100 year old pans that are smooth as glass. I’ve tried reseasoning them 3 or 4 times, each time doing it in ways r/castiron said I was supposed to, but I do love those pans, glad they work with induction.
The differences between the classic American and English breakfasts are one of those things that make travel between the two countries so pleasing, at least for me.
Different enough from one another to feel mildly exotic, yet similar enough to make you feel (mostly) at home.
Did wonder while I was over there ages ago why no one had shown them you can fry green tomatoes too for a bit of variety. Searing a ripe one just kinda makes a mess, lol.
As a connoisseur of hotel breakfasts, I can say that’s one of the best examples. Maybe a bit light on the beans, but that toast looks awesome and the bacon is cooked very well. One little sausage is a bit stingy, but then I’d have traded that in for more bacon anyway. The proof is obviously in the tasting, but I’m jealous just by looking at it!
I do prefer a Scottish breakfast, though. Perfect so long as it still includes beans (purists don’t), but the potato scone is far superior to the hash brown. I’d leave the haggis usually anyway, just like you left the black pudding here.
The Toast was so good! And the Bacon was per-fect, I love bacon like that, way more than the way I found it in the US dry as a crisp and super salty, here it had juice! it had taste!
Yeah, the UK does back bacon, while the US and Canada seem to love streaky bacon. They’re both the same area IIRC, but the back bacon just includes a chunk of meat along with the streaky fat part. This can be challenging when cooking, as the fat and the meat cook at different rates. When you fry it you have to render the fat at a very low heat, then raise the heat gently to cook the meat. If you do it just right you can get crispy fat and tender, chewy meat on the same piece. Typically in commercial kitchens they just oven cook it, which is easier to achieve a more consistent result, but I love doting over them in a frying pan.
You do need to be a little careful what you buy. Most bacon is cheap and injected with brine by an automated production process, whereas Dry Cured bacon is done by hand. It’s a little more expensive, but generally much better quality. The gold standard is that one little old butcher’s shop that has an old hand crank machine to slice you fresh, thick cuts of bacon - if you find a place like this, try their pork pies, especially when they’re fresh.
