    I visited Scotland in October 2019. I ate haggis twice. The first time was in Edinburgh at a place called Cafe Presko on Gorgie Road. Their version was sliced, pan fried and very peppery. What really caught me off guard was that, while the outside was a bit crispy from the frying process, the inside was so creamy. It was truly a delight. The second time I had it was in Stonehaven. We stopped at The Caron, the birthplace of the deep fried mars bar. Their haggis was in a log form, battered and deep fried. I haven't had it in the traditional "served with neeps and tatties" manner, but the two ways I did try it, I thoroughly enjoyed, and would most certainly have it again!

  • @Apocalypz
    @Apocalypz 6 років тому +17

    True haggis is similar in texture, but not as salty. You can eat it on its own, and can easily pair with *everything* from potato mash to chips to mushy peas to cripss. I hope you're able to make a trip!

  • @aliciarenon
    @aliciarenon 6 років тому +1

    I was in Edinburgh for this past Hogmanay. After a very chilly day shopping and sight seeing on the Royal Mile, there was nothing better than a warm pub, cold beer, and my first warm, filling plate of haggis with neeps and tatties! It tasted like our Thanksgiving stuffing to me, and reminded me a lot of meatloaf. It was so comforting. And yes, mine had a side of whisky sauce.
    I can’t wait to go backtrack Scotland-during the summer this time. 😊

    the name of the poem is "To A Haggis", meaning that it's addressed to a specific one. They recite the poem when they bring out; I witnessed this on Burns Day it New Zealand, which has a strong Scottish heritage especially in the south, where the.weather is foul and they like it that way.

    I tried Haggis when I went to Scotland 2 years ago. The restaurant where I ate the Haggis brought it out on a tray still in the stomach. It was tasty and they served it with the Neeps and Tatties. We ate the lablet too. I bought some English butter fudge at Trader Joe's and it is similar in taste to the Tablet

    @shakiestalocachica 5 років тому +1

    Good tip: canned Haggis makes great stuffing! We have a dish called Balmoral Chicken which is chicken breast stuffed with Haggis and covered in bacon or Parma ham and baked. Serve with whisky cream sauce and mash. I've also stuffed just a regular chicken with it. The high fat content just works, and it's a good way to introduce it to squeamish people.
    Having said that, anyone who has tried it with me thought it was delicious. It makes me happy!!!

  • @agneswatson9592
    @agneswatson9592 6 років тому +1

    I'm Scottish, haggis is great! Best way to eat is is from the 'chip shop' as a haggis supper. Haggis rolled into a large sausage shape. dipped in batter and deep fried. Served with a portion of chips, or fries as you would know them. Sprinkle both with salt & vinegar, mmmm... Also macaroon bars were traditionally made way back when, and my mother in law showed me, filling made from mashed potato and icing sugar! And Fry's chocolate cream is my all time favourite! Glad to enjoyed a taste of Scotland.

    Your videos are just absolutely radiant with happiness and curiosity. I love it. I'm British but from England, however, I absolutely love haggis and definitely recommend that you try it in Scotland. It's a lot more oatier-looking that the one you have, maybe a bit dryer too. The spices get me every time, it's so much more flavorful than it looks. You can have it for breakfast as well. One of my favourite restaurants in London serves a breakfast dish that consists of a haggis patty soaked in a thick whiskey sauce with a fried duck egg on top, it's incredible. I also recommend trying kippers.

  • @markiangooley

    Homemade haggis cooked directly in a pot: I use heart and liver, with salt pork, black pepper, and steel-cut oats. More or less like the real thing; purists would perhaps say less. Not bad, and I sometimes eat it with a little soy sauce...

    Yay - you tried haggis - glad you liked it - from your description it sounds like the canned variety is a bit less textured and mushy than 'fresh' haggis is - the oats in it give it a very grainy texture, like stuffing, and usually has a ton of white pepper in it giving it a real spicy peppery kick. It's lovely stuff.

It’s interesting because most other countries I’ve been, the locals there have never been to my home country/town (Vancouver Canada) but many Scottish people I spoke to actually have visited! They said Canada and Scotland are pretty similar...and I’d have to agree. Definitely felt at home there :) Can’t wait to visit again one day.

    I'm South African, but my Great Gran was Scottish and she made delicious haggis. I only ever had it a couple of times, but it was an incredible treat with mashed potatoes and sweet, roasted parsnips and peas. It was dense with a rich, peppery, clovey flavour and I used to mix it with my mash so it would last longer. My mom says she actually used to make it with heart, kidneys and ground chuck along with the usual oatmeal and suet.

      In Australia treacle and golden syrup is the same thing only treacle, is darker and richer because it is less refined, both syrups is a by product of refining sugar cane from Queensland. Molasses is a bit different, it’s a little more bitter and much thicker, but another by product of sugarcane and it’s actually good for you.

    Had Haggis for the first time while nursing a hangover in Edinburgh. From a tiny butcher shop near the train station...someone told me that was the best place to get traditional Scottish food because the train employees wanted really good, fresh food. I loved it; it was sort of hangover food in a strange way. Loved black pudding more though.
    The canned stuff is okay but pretty different. I recently bought Haggis chips here which, amazingly, tasted like haggis.

      Even if it is, customs doesn't have the time and manpower to inspect every last thing that enters the country. How do you think people were able to order Cuban cigars during the embargo? Generally, the only two ways a package gets inspected is if either it's bad luck, or something seems off about the package (like the package and paperwork don't seem to line up).

      The word "turnip" refers to two entirely different vegetables depending on where it's used. Scottish turnips (which I think are actually Swedish turnips, but I'm not positive on that) are nothing like American turnips, they're much closer to American rutabagas. So if you're making neeps and tatties in America, you'll actually be using rutabagas and potatoes, not turnips and potatoes. Parsnips aren't involved at all--but just as an aside, if you boil up a couple of parsnips with your potatoes and mash them together with a bit of butter, the flavor is delicious!

    The tinned stuff is ok but the real thing has a softer consistency (and generally more complex flavour).
    I tend to roast mine (in a water bath) then separate a bit after it’s cooked to bake after it’s done. the consistency is not something you often experience, a little chewy, a little coarse and a lot of slow cooked meat/flavour throughout. Sausage like is close but the binding of oats and chewy bits are fairly unique in foods.
