Hearsay

Answers:
IT IS NOT MUSHY PEAS!!! It is called liquor and it is a parsley sauce, but no the one that can be found in the supermarket in a packet, which is milk based. It uses the 'liquor' from the 'eels' that they have cooked - which 'jelly' naturally.
I doubt if you can buy it anywhere apart from a proper Pie and Mash/Jellied Eel shop.
You could try to make your own by boiling up a few eels, adding parsley (fresh) and then seasoning to taste!

Liquor. Get it from a pie & mash shop. It's a bit of a guarded recipe I think. NOT MUSHY BLOODY PEAS!

parsley sauce ihave never seen it for sale individually i think its something you make yourself with fresh parsley, water,salt,cornflour.
mushy peas, you can buy in tins at the supermarket
chicken liquor. nowhere i know except pie and mash shops. couldn't find it on the web.
Do you mean mushy peas, or is that a Northern thing?
its either mushey peas or its the liquer, hence pie mash and liquer.
if its the peas then absolutly any supermarket will stock them, somewhere near the baked beans usually, if its the liquer though you may want to make it yourself it is called parsley liquor and the links below will show you how to make both the pie and the liquor.
good luck.
No need to buy it, as it is so simple to make- 1 tablespoon of cornflower mixed with a littlle cold water, mix til smooth, add finely chopped fresh parsley to taste, dried will do , add salt to taste, then add boiling water, mix in while adding. If it doesn't thicken straight away, jut bring back to boil, stirring all the time.
Adjust quantities til you get correct consistency. I can see a lot of people don't know what you're talking about..it's an East End London thing!
Mushy peas, basically marrowfat peas mushed up with vinegar. Also known as Manchester caviar!
Nothing to add - just had to say IT'S NOT MUSHY PEAS!!!

It's green liquor made with parsley and cornflower.
its parsley sauce its made from parsley and the juice that stewed eels are cooked in
It's parsley liquor.
I believe you are talking the mushy peas put on top of the pie crust, some bakeries take the lid off and put the peas in between meat and said lid.
Since when have mushy peas resembled 'gravy'? 

Since never! So why so many answers saying 'Oh, it must be mushy peas.!'??
