The Anonymous Widower

A1950s Sunday Tea Updated to Gluten-Free

For many of my age, Sunday tea was generally sandwiches and cakes washed down with a Cup of TyPhoo or other tea.

The sandwiches were often of the dreaded fish paste variety, with the paste coming from Shippam’s. For a treat my mother would often add malted fruit bread with currants and sultanas.

I can still taste it all now.

Today for tea, I had fish pate sandwiches and fruit bread.

Here’s the sandwiches, which I made from Genius brown bread, Benecol buttery spread and Waitrose mackerel pate.

Gluten-Free Fish Paste Sandwiches

I cut the crusts off to make them easier to eat. And here’s the Genius fruit bread.

Gluten-Free Fish Fruit Toast

I did toast it, as I prefer it that way.

So I can now go back to the 1950s for Sunday tea.
