DISCOVER WALES

Though Wales forms part of the United Kingdom, make no mistake: this small country has its own distinctive character, and is revered for its spectacular Celtic culture, flower-flanked Pembrokeshire coastlines, and horizons pierced by dramatic mountains. It’s also where you can find some of the UK's most popular tourist spots, like Snowdonia National Park.

Welsh cuisine is threaded through with Celtic and English influences, and heavily features fresh catches from the sea. Take time to try Welsh dishes like cawl, laverbread and Conwy mussels for a taste of tradition, coupled with drinks such as locally-brewed beers and ciders.

TRADITIONAL WELSH FOOD

welsh rarebits

A Welsh Rarebit is a savory dish made with a cheese-based sauce, typically served on toast. The dish is said to have originated in Wales, and its earliest known mention dates back to 1725. Welsh Rarebits can be made with a variety of different cheeses, and the sauce may also include beer, Worcestershire sauce, or mustard.

cawl

A cawl is a traditional Welsh soup made with lamb, leeks, and potatoes. It is typically slow-cooked for several hours, allowing the flavors to meld together. Cawl is a hearty dish that is perfect for a winter evening. While the ingredients may vary slightly from region to region, the basic cawl recipe has remained unchanged for centuries.

laverbread

Laverbread, also known as Welsh caviar, is a traditional Welsh dish made from the seaweed Laver (Porphyra umbilicalis). The seaweed is washed and boiled for several hours until it becomes a thick, dark green paste. Laverbread is usually served with oatmeal, fried eggs, and bacon. It is also used as an ingredient in many other Welsh dishes such as laverbread fritters and laverbread cakes.

seafood

The Welsh coastline has some of the most varied and delicious seafood in the UK. With everything from lobster to cockles, there's something for everyone. The quality of the seafood is exceptional, and it's all caught fresh each day. If you're looking for a truly unique culinary experience, you need to try Welsh seafood.

lamb

Lamb is a common dish in Wales and is often served with mint sauce. The Welsh word for lamb is “cwtch”. A popular way to cook lamb in Wales is to roast it with rosemary and garlic. The meat from a lamb is tender and has a mild flavor. Lamb is a good source of protein, iron, and zinc.

welsh cakes

Welsh cakes are a traditional treat in Wales, dating back centuries. They are made with flour, butter, sugar, eggs, and currants, and are cooked on a griddle. Welsh cakes are often served with tea, and are a popular treat at fairs and festivals. If you're ever in Wales, be sure to try a Welsh cake!
