A Taste of History
Roast beef has been a staple of English cuisine since at least the 15th century and is a cornerstone of the traditional British Sunday roast. The song "The Roast Beef of Old England" celebrated the dish as a symbol of English prosperity and patriotism. Serving it with a gravy made from the meat's own juices is a fundamental technique.
