A '''savoury''' is the final course of a traditional English formal meal, following the sweet [[pudding]] or [[dessert]] course. The savoury is designed to "clear the [[palate]]" before the [[Port wine|port]], [[whisky]] or other digestif is served. It generally consists of rich, highly spiced or salty elements. While the popularity of savouries has waned since their height during Victorian times, there has recently been a renewed interest in savouries.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Potts |first=Olivia |date=2023-03-30 |title=Bring back the savoury! |url=https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/bring-back-the-savoury/ |access-date=2024-01-26 |website=The Spectator |language=en-US}}</ref> |

Typical savouries |
Typical savouries are: |
||
*[[Scotch woodcock]] |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
*[[Welsh rarebit]] |
|||
*[[Devils on horseback]], dates, prunes or other dried fruit wrapped in bacon |
|||
*[[Devilled Kidneys]] |
|||
*[[Scotch woodcock]], scrambled eggs on toast spread with anchovy paste |
|||
*[[Locket's Savoury]] |
|||
*[[Welsh rarebit]], hot cheese sauce, often including beer, served on toasted bread |
|||
*[[Toast Victoria]] |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
*[[Devils on horseback]] |
|||
Savouries are often served on toast, fried bread or some kind of biscuit or cracker. They are first mentioned in ''[[The Closet Opened|The Closet of the Eminently Learned Sir Kenelme Digbie Kt. Opened]]'' in 1669.<ref>Digby, 1669</ref> In [[Eliza Acton]]'s 1845 book ''[[Modern Cookery for Private Families]]'', there is just one recipe for savouries which appears to be a proto-[[croque monsieur]], with a small footnote. In the 20th century, however, entire books on the subject appeared, such as ''Good Savouries'' (1934) by [[Ambrose Heath]]. In contrast to many elements of wider [[British cuisine]], the savoury as a distinct course never spread beyond England and was therefore regarded as peculiar to [[English cuisine|English]] and emblematic of upper class dining.<ref>Freeman & Evans, 2020 https://www.researchgate.net/publication/344364561_The_English_Savoury_Course/link/5f6c9dfa299bf1b53eee0eaf/download?_tp=eyJjb250ZXh0Ijp7ImZpcnN0UGFnZSI6InB1YmxpY2F0aW9uIiwicGFnZSI6InB1YmxpY2F0aW9uIn19</ref> |

The 1669 cookbook ''[[The Closet Opened|The Closet of the Eminently Learned Sir Kenelme Digbie Kt. Opened]]'' includes an entry for 'Savoury Tosted or Melted Cheese', a dish of melted well-flavoured cheese and butter, optionally with the addition of asparagus, bacon, onions or anchovies, and scorched at the top with a hot fire-shovel, served with toasts or crusts of white bread.<ref>{{cite book |
