Of course they are a very thick muffin, but are you paying a higher cost for thickness or quality of taste here? If you ever eat a Mcdonalds english muffin the taste is similar.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2962270981044781910.post-16612681782690236362009-01-30T06:52:00.000-05:002009-01-30T06:52:00.000-05:00It makes me wonder if anyone who attempted to answ...It makes me wonder if anyone who attempted to answer your question was actually english but it gave me a giggle anyway.<BR/><BR/>In england, english muffins are called.... prepare yourselves... English muffins.<BR/>Muffins are a cake with stuff in that people in america recognise as muffins too. As for being like a crumpet or scone well.. i would describe an english muffin as more like a bread bun. A scone is a type of cake (but i agree it is similar in method to "biscuits"- which i say in quotes as biscuits here are cookies to you O_O) and crumpets are usually a snack item which is a dense breadlike round with dimples in it... they're always reminded me of sponges to be honest :) <BR/>Hope that helps a bit!

The rather wet, sticky dough is placed in forms on a skillet and allowed to cook, much like a pancake and then they are flipped to brown the other side. They are actually quite easy to make from scratch if you happen to have some forms. Legend has it that Wolferman's English muffins were originally made in tuna tins which is why they are so thick.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2962270981044781910.post-89491893286603013172009-01-22T08:37:00.000-05:002009-01-22T08:37:00.000-05:00Just because I was curious of your question, I we...Just because I was curious of your question, I went and found the answer. <BR/><BR/>English muffins are believed to be an attempt at a crumpet by an English immigrant but using more baking powder. Crumpets are thicker and often made with potato flour. Scones are like biscuits.<BR/><BR/>That businessman will think twice about giving his seat up to someone who doesn't feel well in the future. :)Katrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10869118816189529159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2962270981044781910.post-28208105703692849962009-01-22T06:18:00.000-05:002009-01-22T06:18:00.000-05:00HEHE!
