Haggis (Scotland!!!)

Haggis
Well as some of you may be aware, I’ve been in Edinburgh, Scotland for a few days. I’ve been taking in the castle, the shops and other tourist attractions, it’s all been lovely and the weather has been kind. (Cold, but not wet!)

One thing that struck me was on the breakfast buffet in the hotel were slices of haggis. I ignored this at first, as you do. But after building up the courage I gave it a try…

If I had to describe the flavour I would say that it was; spicy, herby, fatty, meaty, peppery and rich in flavour.

It wasn’t actually unpleasant in flavour, but the actual concept – I don’t think I’ll think about the ingredients!!!
