Kathiejs Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I thought an American 'biscuit' was a scone? Eggs benedict should come on a muffin, not a scone! I'd rather have them on toasted white roll than on a scone I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyL Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 American version of an "English muffin", which most Americans think should be part of eggs Benedict English Muffin: Eggs Benedict: Biscuit: Biscuits and gravy: What they serve at River Market is a cheese-garlic biscuit, similar to the "Red Lobster" cheese biscuit. It's not a traditional part of either a U.S. eggs Benedict or biscuits and gravy: To me, the River Market cheese biscuit seems more like a "scone".

Kathiejs Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 (edited) So to summarise:- 1) American "English muffin" = British "muffin (you know, the bready kind you split not the cakey sort)" 2) both Americans and Brits expect their eggs benedict to come on an English muffin/muffin 3) Brits need a more concise way to differentiate muffin types and 4) Americans do apalling things to scones.
