Just watching a programme where a Pie & Mash shop was featured. My son walked in just when they were talking about the liquor so I missed what it's actually made of. Does anyone know?
And do you eat jellied eels? I've never tried them but my Nan used to love them.
The liquor is a savoury parsley sauce, sometimes made from the water in which the eels were cooked, but recipes vary. It's made from parsley mixed with butter, flour, water and some seasoning.
I had jellied eels years and years ago and quite liked them, very meaty and not very fishy from what I remember.
The liquor is a sort of runny parsley type sauce I think, never had it though.

Used to have pie and mash weekly but hadn't had it for over 40 years - until I popped into one in Romford couple of months back. It was just as I remembered, though I guess the meat is of better quality than in the old days (when it was distinctly anaemic looking). Thought the waitress service was poor, until I realised you had to go to the counter and collect it yourself! It must have been the original fast food.
'Real' pie & mash liquor is made with the water that the eels have been stewed in. Pie & mash shops also serve stewed eels with mash and liquor. You can order pie & mash on line from one of the oldest and most famous Pie & Mash shops in London.
