Brown sauce

HP Brown Sauce is in fairly regular use in this house. It sits in the cupboard, next to the bottle of ketchup. It’s my partner’s usual choice with a cooked breakfast, whilst my preference is ketchup.

Go into any British cafe serving breakfast and both will be on the table. Go into any takeaway serving breakfast items and you’ll be asked if you want brown sauce or red sauce (ketchup) on your sausage butty.

“Red Sauce, Brown Sauce” is the title of Felicity Cloake’s book about her tour round Britain and the breakfasts she ate, A good read, IMO.
