I’m convinced a majority of food discoveries pre- widespread use of refrigeration can boil down to “oh, I forgot about that. let’s see if eating it doesn’t kill me”

I literally could not imagine a world of food without onion, garlic or vinegar lol

I am Cajun, and 8ve been cooking for 50 years. I use Lea & Perrins in almost everything I cook. That's every gravy, sauce, some beans. I even put it in scrambled eggs.

My grandma ALWAYS had a bottle of Lea & Perrins. She cooked a lot of American-Southern style food. LnP on a cube steak is HEAVEN. Miss you Mami, missed you since 1999. Would give about anything to have your Cube Steak, Mac n Cheese, Rolls and sweet tea right now.

That sauce is a blessing to the world. My mom puts it in nearly every dish she made. I moved out and still use it in a lot of dishes

"I'm not a big fan of anchovies, garlic, onions, vinegar, etc" how the hell are you un a food channel ?

No other brand will do for me but this one, and it's a staple in my pantry. It was a staple for my mother, and I've carried that on, using it for so many things! Lee & Perrins is the best.

Based in Florida. The Columbia Restaurants in Tampa and other cities in Florida, uses the most of this sauce and brand in its famous 1905 Salad. It is to die for delicious! It is named the 1905 Salad. The salad is now so popular that the Columbia is the biggest restaurant consumer of Lea & Perrin's Worcestershire sauce in the country Get it with a cup of Black beans and rice soup and 1/2 a Cuban sandwich! You will never forget it.

I just realized Lea & Perrins is basically a British version of Asian fish sauce. Not something you wanna sip by itself but sheer alchemy when used as an ingredient. I keep several bottles of fish sauce varieties on hand.

I’m in California and don’t like anchovies, but Lea & Perrins Worcestershire sauce is the BEST sauce for steaks and a lot more. Thanks for making this documentary and posting it here!

I love Worcestershire sauce. It has a flavor that nothing can replace.

[rustybearden]

I was always taught to use a few drops of Worcester sauce to almost any sauce (especially cold sauces) to help balance and bring out flavors that might usually be hidden by other ingredients - if you can taste the Worcester then you've added too much - it's bit traditional and old school but it has served me well in my cooking career - this is a pantry item that everyone should have

Next you should send a vegetarian to the best steak house in the world so we can all anxiously await the review.

Host: I don't like the taste of a lot of things.
Food insider: you're hired!!

Lea and perrins is THE best Worcestershire Sauce on the market. Forget all the others. I love this in my food and I especially enjoy about 5 shakes into a glass full of Tomato I get through quite a few bottles of this in a year.

Great in meatloaf, marinating flank steaks, hamburgers, a touch in mayo for fries dip or a chip dip or in marinade for roasted brussel sprouts and radishes or a baked potatoe and great to use a little to fried rice.

When I was a boy my mom would buy us steaks when they weren’t too expensive and would cook them up in the broiler with salt, pepper, butter, garlic and Lea and Perrins. The house would smell so good! Steak, potatoes and salad with bread and butter. So long ago but happy memories.

Lea & Perrins is the real deal. Don't fall for imitation Worcestershire. If it ain't Lea and Perrins, it ain't Worcestershire.

[joeykramer]

Great sauce. Never really looked at ingredients until recently and was surprised that it has anchovies. Love it

[linzianna]

As a Midlands girl I love the stuff and use it regularly in all sorts of recipes and dishes I cook at home
