make sure you get a recipe from someone English
Are there any other condiments acceptable to have with scotch eggs other than mustard?
Colman’s mustard is delicious with them!
Not everyone is a fan of mustard

Yellow mustard is fine. Beige mustard is not.

If you're eating your scotch egg without a mustard scallion aïoli, then you're doing it wrong.

I've never made them myself, but there's a Scottish pub near my house that makes a mean scotch egg, and that's what they serve it with. It's delicious. I always order one when I'm there.

not that I know of traditionally, but I reckon anything that's good with pork would work; apple sauce!

It makes a huge difference. Most of our ceilings are greige and it makes the house darker than it should be.

Were the ceilings the same color as the walls? That's a classic lazy contractor move.

The entire house was the same color. They sprayed the whole thing, then put down some cheap LVP. Hard to paint accent walls because the change of planes are bullnosed.

As a hotel manager, you can imagine the amount of beige I’ve seen in my career. People never get offended by beige. Grey and white are a close second and third. Black is tricky..
