Feature

In 19th century, the quicker distribution of fresh materials allowded to have fresh fish across Britain. The fish frying process had long been known in England, due to Jewish immigration from the Mediterranean. According to some theories, Venetian immigrants missed their traditional "scartosso de pés" (wrapped fish) and imported in Britain the habit of eating fried fish, wrapped in thick paper to eat while walking.
