Just use some clarification here.
I have a very nice recipe book for my slow stove and it seems to be American.
Some recipes require dice with cream cheese.I always think of something like Philadelphia Cheese as I think of cream cheese and it is not really something that you can cut into cubes.
Does that mean something else in the US, or do I read too much in the description?

I would also have thought of Philly - some American measurements are difficult to understand - for example

Their measurements sound old from old -modified with their cups and sticks and cans instead of cans. Auto and 'fragmented' cheese.I thought it had to mean.

Yes that is it.Be careful, an American FL OZ differs from a British liquid oz.
Butter comes in sticks in the US.1 stick butter is 8 tbsp.
Ripped cheese is grated cheese.

I have seen Phillyphia in the US in a block such as butter.In the past it would be possible to cut it into cubes.I don't know if the consistency is different from 'normal' Philedelphia as they sell it in the bathtub and in the UK.
It was useful there, right?

Strange things about British cookbooks for an American:
What is Rocket?
Spring onions?(We call them green onions)
We have no gammon, sheep meat,
Gel? Jelly in de VS is jam. Jello is jelly.
Muscovado sugar?
Caster sugar?
Most people have never been heard of the US of Vanage Frais (we have cream fraiche)
Bacon in the United States is the striped species.The kind, usually bacon here in the United Kingdom, is called Canadian bacon.

Philadelphia is a power of power that creates cream cheese.There are other brands, so it's just known as cream cheese.The things in blocks are exactly the same as Bathtub.

I think they say 'cut' in cubes' to make it easier to mix, especially since most people would do it in a food processor where in a whole bathtub with Philly would come in a lump in the knives
Sofaqueen ·30/10/2009 12:47
Colby Cheese is a horror - close to Cheddar (with much less taste) with a deep orange color.

Sour Cream is not the same as Fromage Frais (with fruit or not!)

Sofaqueen - ate his asparagus in the US - I had some visitors back for a while and did some grilled asparagus (which was wonderful if I say so myself), but they didn't even try it - then I wondered if they didn't do thatDid what it was and was too polite to ask?

Here is a good translation for both the US and the British cooking terminology www.allem.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ukuscook.htm

I agree, grapefruit moon.I just gave the nearest approach.
Asparagus is eaten in the United States, but is seen as pretty poncy.

Sofa Queen, you have been really helpful.Thanks again.Good link to. 'Marshmallow cream'?Sounds interesting.

Marshmallow Cream- Some people are obsessed with this.
Applications:
Marshmallow Cream en Peanut Butter Sandwich (Uggg)
Mixed to roasted sweet potato (UGG UGG)
Lav fudge
Make glaze (best use
Spread on Graham Cracker (different dick) and several multed chocolate on top (My Secret Vice)
In cakes
It is actually available in Selfridges Food Hall for a burning marking.

... also on FireBox so - I usually get my sister one on her stocking (and eat the rest herself, over Nom Nom)

Yes, Philly and cream cheese are the same.If you put your cheese cheese in the fridge a little in the fridge, you can cut it into cubes immediately after you have switched it off.You can happen otherwise from the bath.
A hine butter is a 1/4 lb butter in the United States is supplied in LBS, divided into four individually packed sticks, each marked in 8 tablespoons.It looks like European butter, tastes like salted fat.
American measurements are performed per volume - a cup is a standard size measuring tool, the same for tablespoons, teaspoons, etc.
As for Marshmallow Pluis, why not just dig in a bag of sugar, so happy that someone else had found who thought that Colby was 'cheese' terrible.

I acknowledge that this is an old post ... I went looking this morning to find out that the UK and the American cream cheese is the same.I make a pumpkin cheese cake recipe that Martha Stewart sent as "fast and easy".
I enjoyed reading the dialogue from years ago.I hope that some of you still go to mumnets.
The thing for butter sticks in the United States is that they are sold in 8-tablesk sticks, as the sofaqueen has noticed ... And they have markings on the Waspapier film for 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. TBSP, TBSP,So it is very quick and easy to cut 4 tablespoons of butter without having to finish a measuring cushion or weigh butter on a bowl.Help loads with speed and cleaning up.
Far from I acknowledge that the "stick" measurements seem to be confusing.X. I state that I would recognize what size we could have used on the shelf, really from branding and label, not so much of the volume.Here I am not so sure of my memory and I really wish I knew how much floating us (or ml) had taken the can.
But sticks, I know how to translate and there are many useful butter butter online.
