The Scotsman is sposoring a search for haggis...and if you can't get to Scotland, they even provided you some webcams...the prize is, of course, some good Scottish whiskey...
HERE is a link to Haggis information, including a Haggis Game...
Haggis is associated with St. Andrew's day, which was Nov 30th...
And here is a Haggis Recipe:
1 sheep's stomach bag 1 sheep's pluck - liver, lungs and heart 3 onions 250g beef Suet 150g oatmeal salt and black pepper a pinch of cayenne 150mls of stock/gravy Cooking Directions:1. Clean the stomach bag thoroughly and soak overnight. In the morning turn it inside out. 2. Wash the pluck and boil for 1.5 hours, ensuring the windpipe hangs over the pot allowing drainage of the impurities. 3. Mince the heart and lungs and grate half the liver. 4. Chop up the onions and suet. 5. Warm the oatmeal in the oven. 6. Mix all the above together and season with the salt and pepper. Then add the cayenne. 7. Pour over enough of the pluck boiled water to make the mixture watery. 8. Fill the bag with the mixture until it's half full. 9. Press out the air and sew the bag up. 10. Boil for 3 hours (you may need to prick the bag with a wee needle if it looks like blowing up!) without the lid on. 11. Serve with neeps and tatties.
Bon Appetit!
