Dawnrazor Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Is there anywhere that sells the broon sauce like you get in the chippy? The wife got a bottle from a shop somewhere but it was pish!! I kill for a fish supper with salt and SAUCE!!! There must be someone that sells it surley??? Quote
Victorian Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 (edited) Just dilute down some yourself. Add vinegar to brown sauce until you like the consistency. Edited July 28, 2016 by Victorian Quote
martoon Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Just dilute down some yourself. Add vinegar to brown sauce until you like the consistency. The correct answer. Never fancied the stuff in old juice bottle's that chippy's sell. Quote

Irufushi Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Aldi were selling chippy brown sauce, still do, I like it. Quote
hughesie27 Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Tried making some before. Didn't really work. Quote
Tazio Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 It's water not vinegar the chippies add. Vinegar makes it lethal if you breath in when your eating your chips. Quote
Sten Guns Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Always found it mental how it's only water they add but it tastes so ****ing good. Quote
Fxxx the SPFL Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Is it true that broon sauce was invented in Edinburgh as was the 99 ice cream cone. Quote
1874robbo Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Any supermarket should sell it. This is what the chippys use, ?1 a bottle in morrisons and asda. Quote
Do The Dance Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 This is what the chippys use, ?1 a bottle in morrisons and asda. And they add water to it. Quote

I kill for a fish supper with salt and SAUCE!!! There must be someone that sells it surley??? You'll get a large "bottle" of the gold star stuff already mentioned from Marko probably. It's made in Glasgow, ironically. Quote
droid Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Adding vinegar to any brown sauce is an absolute myth when it comes to making chippy sauce Quote
Fitzroy Pointon Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 (edited) Any supermarket should sell it. Aye, big bottles in Farmfoods, broon and rid. Don't use anything else now. Sent from my SM-A310F using Tapatalk Edited July 28, 2016 by Salad Fingers Quote
jack D and coke Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Adding vinegar to any brown sauce is an absolute myth when it comes to making chippy sauceYep. The gold star stuff with a bit water is exactly what the chippy horses on your supper. Quote
Irufushi Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 Yep. The gold star stuff with a bit water is exactly what the chippy horses on your supper. How much water though? Quote
jack D and coke Posted July 28, 2016 Posted July 28, 2016 How much water though?Not too much. You can make it too pishy and you've ruined it. I've always got a bit left in one bottle so I'll put some of the new one into the old bottle and pish up the new one a wee bit. I only put it on chips on there own or on fish and chips. Everything else is daddies or HP. Ketchup is for weirdos. Quote
Phage Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 Some chippies don't water it down. Gorgie Fish Bar for example. Whilst others do... Gino's at Longstone can be particularly watery, which is crap. Real men demand full concentrate, leave the watery pish to Hibbies and the like. Quote
Paolo Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 Any supermarket should sell it. This is what you want. Quote
Toggie88 Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 Yup - Gold Star brown sauce. When my grand-dad owned a chippy, it was 50% Gold Star, 50% Water. Quote
Brian Whittaker's Tache Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 It's water not vinegar the chippies add. Vinegar makes it lethal if you breath in when your eating your chips. This! 50/50 water and cash and carry gallon bottles of broon sauce. Years working in Aldo's in Uphall as a spotty teenager taught me this. Quote
Stephane Grappelli Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 The Gorgie Fish bar sells bottles of it and they're due back from their holidays any day now. Quote
AlimOzturk Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 (edited) The Gorgie Fish bar sells bottles of it and they're due back from their holidays any day now.Aii but it is dear and you can buy it from a supermarket for a quid. They charge about ?2.50. Seen some chippys sell it in milk cartons ffs. Use a old sauce bottle and mix it up with 50-50 sauce and water. Or better yet use it straight from the bottle.

I didn't know what they were charging for it, I just remember spying bottles on the shelf during that awkward wait for them to get my haggis supper ready! Quote
Sooperstar Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 (edited) Watered down Broon Chippy Sauce ? Jesus wept. What's the world coming to ? Miserable gits. The chippy sauce you get served in the chippy is the watered down version and has been for decades. Edited July 29, 2016 by Sooperstar Quote
Maroon Sailor Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 It's what the Edinburgh chippy has always been renowned for. I would lick the paper or tray at the end if I spotted a wee pool of it ! Quote
superjack Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 When my folks were staying in East Calder, I always got a few bottles of the brown gold from Toninos chippie in mid Calder prior to heading back up to Lewis. Now they're in Blackridge, I still haven't found a chippie close by that sells it. To make matters worse, nowhere up here sells gold star broon sauce so I can't make my own. Quote

Dawnrazor Posted July 29, 2016 Author Posted July 29, 2016 I am gonna buy a bottle of the stuff and do the watering down bit. Fish and chips tomorrow and I canny wait.... We've been living in Lancashire for 9 years, a fish supper isnae the same without broon sauce, the wife has been directed to source the sauce asap!!!!Cheers, a problem solved, gold star + water, magic!!

chester copperpot Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 I am gonna buy a bottle of the stuff and do the watering down bit. Fish and chips tomorrow and I canny wait.... Just had chips there with watered doon brown sauce. I had always used vinegar however used water after reading this thread and it was just barry! Quote
superjack Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 Amazon is your friend Edit to Add I looked on it and couldn't find it. I've been looking on Amazon and eBay with no luck. only supermarkets on lewis is Tesco and coop, no luck in either of them. I'll just need to continue slumming it with mayonnaise on my chips. Quote

chester copperpot Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 Feck. I'm Hank Marvin just thinking about it. Effin tuna salad tonight so tomorrow canny come soon enough. : It wasn't the gold star stuff though just some shite from Aldis. Still was great with a wee bit salt. Feel the weegie chippies who attempt to make brown sauce always get it wrong. Quote
chester copperpot Posted July 29, 2016 Posted July 29, 2016 Feel the weegie chippies ??? Deary me! Quote
Greedy Jambo Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 There's never been a better time to start watering down yer brown sauce. Just done it myself. Wee bit bottled water added to Goldstar, taste and repeat. Quote

I'd put chippy sauce on a battered burger on a roll. A proper burger roll with cheese, lettuce and onion.. it has to be ketchup. Hot dog is mustard and ketchup.

As you would be if you used any brown sauce regularly. It's the best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be. Quote

Greedy Jambo Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 Anyone going for the 50/50 gold star and water, i wouldn't recommend it. I think yer looking at about 65/35 and take it from there. Quote
