Definitions
A Geordie (northeast England) word for a stottie — a thick, doughy, round flatbread that's a staple of Newcastle and the surrounding region. Despite being called a 'cake,' it's a bread product typically sliced and filled with sandwich ingredients, most famously ham and pease pudding. The stottie cake is dense, chewy, and deeply regional — a point of local pride and a reliable test of whether someone has genuine northeast English roots.
There's nothing like coming home to a proper stottie cake stuffed with ham and pease pudding after a long shift.

A Geordie (Tyneside, northeast England) name for a stottie — a thick, flat, round bread roll with a dense crumb and a characteristic dimple in the middle, baked on the bottom of the oven. Stotty cakes are a point of fierce local pride in Newcastle and the surrounding region, where they're used for substantial sandwiches stuffed with pease pudding, ham, or anything else going. Despite the word 'cake', there's nothing sweet about them — the name comes from the Geordie verb 'to stot', meaning to bounce (the dough is said to be so dense it bounces if dropped).
