It’s 2009 and with the beggining of the year, it’s Burn’s Night! The Scottish festival thing… it’s about some poet or author… wait… *googles*… Anyway it’s another haggis videe, and with it my Scottish accent (weak in places..) and me chatting on for a bit. As always the counter will count how many times I state the Scottish food feast. HAGGIS! NOTE: Do not be offinded by my poor parody of a scottish person. DO remember I am acting a Crazy Scotsman, and all other (well, most) Scottish people are OK!!! (there, glad that’s out of the way..)
Yes, haggis. The scottish food made of sheep organs. And preferably not in a can.
Haggis Ingredients:
- 1 sheep’s stomach (preferably fresh)
- Heart, liver, kidneys and lungs of a sheep (preferably from the same sheep. The sheep will thank you! Well, probably not the one who’s missing all its internal organs)
- Salt and pepper
- White cayenne pepper
- Nutmeg (everybody likes a little sweetness!)
- 2 onions, chopped
- 6 ounces toasted oatmeal (???…must be a Scottish thing?)
- 1 pound beef suet (not duet)
- Three-fourths pint of stock (A little known Scottish phrase for “a generous helping of scotch so you can eat this stuff!”)
I’m a traveler so I’ve eaten foods from the following countries: Japan, Spain, Italy, France, Turkey, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Puerto Rico, South Korea, Alaska, Guam and the Philippines.
The ceremony of haggis is an integral, traditional, almost tongue-in-cheek feature of the Burns Supper â an event which honours the birthday of Rabbie Burns.
Scotlandâs world famous poet was so taken with the national dish, he even wrote and ode to it â prompting the creation of the ceremony.
With most suppers taking place on or around Burns Night (or Burns Nicht), January 25th, Scots are just winter-weary enough to welcome an excuse to eat hearty food and enjoy a blood-thickening tipple.
A dish combining a sheepâs heart, lungs and liver, minced with onion, oatmeal, suet and spices, non-Scots may wince at the thought of trying haggis for the first time!
Yet with its distinct spices and meaty texture, haggis is known for hearty, comforting qualities in the depths of the harsh Scottish winter.
The entrance of the haggis takes place usually after the hostâs welcoming speech. A piper plays a soulful tune while the cook enters with a giant haggis on a tray.
Having lain it down on the main table, hunger is put on hold while the host reads one of Burnâs most famous poems; address to a haggis, a humorous ode to that âgreat chieftain oâ the puddin-race!â
Enjoyed with neeps ânâ tatties (mashed turnips and potatoes!), a nip of whisky completes the dining experience.
The Burns Supper is also characterised by Scottish music, ceilidh dancing and poetry reading. Letâs not forget as well, the âtoast to the lassiesâ, which is followed by a âreply to the toast to the lassiesâ â all good hearted banter!
Burnâs Suppers today are celebrated by Scots, expatriates and enthusiasts the world over, but thereâs no experience like toasting the bard in Edinburgh.
There is a wealth of Edinburgh accommodation available for visitors attending Burns Suppers in any part of the Scottish Capital.
For added flexibility, there are quality serviced apartments in Edinburgh which allow freedom and affordability.
Edinburgh apartments are often of a high standard, so you have a real âhome from homeâ to return to after a late night dancing. You can ever try self-catering in you apartmentâs kitchen â but you might want to leave the haggis to the experts!
