Let’s talk sausage rolls!
The golden, savoury snack that’s a true British icon 🏆 Whether you’re grabbing one on the go, packing it in a lunchbox, or popping it into a picnic basket, the sausage roll is always up for the job!
But did you know this classic has been around for centuries? And now - finally - it’s having its moment in gluten-free glory.
From humble beginnings to the brilliant gluten free sausage roll we bake today, here’s the full story. Buckle up, snackers!
Believe it or not, the sausage roll has roots all the way back in ancient Greece- NOT the UK! 😱 Yep, despite it being such a British classic, it goes alllll the way back to the ancient Greeks!
Early versions involved wrapping spiced meats in dough and baking them - basic, but definitely effective!
Though the humble sausage roll may have had its roots in ancient Greece and Rome... The version we’d recognise today came from France in the 1800s - think meat wrapped in flaky puff pastry.
The Brits took one bite, and said: “Yeah, we’ll have that”!
By the Victorian era, sausage rolls were being sold from street carts across London - hot, portable, and perfect with a pint!
And they’ve been a mainstay of picnics, lunchboxes, and buffet tables all across Britain ever since 🧺 (How magical!)
The UK fully embraced the sausage roll in the 1800s, when it became a staple street snack across London. Hot, hearty, and affordable - it was an instant classic. And since then? The sausage roll has shown up everywhere.
From school tuck shops to posh buffets, football matches to fancy parties - there’s always a place for a proper sausage roll.
For years, gluten free sausage roll lovers had it rough. While the rest of the world enjoyed their flaky golden snacks, coeliacs and gluten-intolerant folks were left out. No snack should leave you behind 😤
