Haggis is possibly the best known Scottish delicacy, and it is wonderful, it has a rich flavour, however some people tasting it for the first time, are often put off when they know what it is made of. Haggis is made from sheep's offal (or pluck).
Ingredients:
1 sheep's lung
1 sheep's stomach
1 sheep heart
1 sheep liver
1/2 lb fresh suet
3/4 cup oatmeal
3 onions, finely chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
3/4 cup stock
Method:
Wash the lung and the stomach well, rub it with salt and then rinse
Remove the membranes and the excess fat
Soak it in cold salted water for several hours
Turn the stomach inside out for stuffing
Cover the heart and the liver with cold water
Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and cover and simmer for 30 minutes
Chop the heart and coarsely grate the liver
Toast the oatmeal in a tray in the stove, until it is golden brown
Combine all ingredients and mix well
Loosely pack mixture into stomach, about two-thirds full
Remember, oatmeal expands in cooking
Press any air out of stomach and truss securely
Put into boiling water to cover
Simmer for 3 hours, uncovered, adding more water as needed to maintain water level
Prick stomach several times with a sharp needle when it begins to swell; this keeps the bag from bursting
Traditionally, Haggis is served with mashed potatoes, turnips and whiskey.
