Haggis is awesome - but I might be the only one here who has eaten haggis in Scotland! 3nodding My Fiance's mate was having it for dinner and offered me a bit to try, there's actually a funny story to go with it but i'll stay on-topic. xp
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Shortbread, very Scottish and VERY yummy. Also love scones, brilliant. And hmmm...scotch meat pies are yummy, and sausage rolls (not sure if they're 100% Scottish but a tradition for me when I visit) and tattie scones are amazing and so many more foods I must try! I adore Black Currant juice too, brilliant stuff, hard to find in the states. And of course Irn Bru, coulden't be without it!
Oh oh im forgetting chippy foods! I supose not 100% Scottish but very common there and they DO offer Haggis. wink Love to get pizza from them, and pizza crunch, and chips...
Im just off work, can you tell im hungry? xp

Cute idea, maybe I should come up with a Ross Shortbread xp I would probably add black currant to it or something knowing me. blaugh I love the choc chip shortbread biscuit, now THOSE are the best choc chip Biscuit's you'll ever have! By the way, biscuit = cookies. 3nodding But my all time favorite are home-made style, where they are soft and sort of crumbly with a sort of sugar topping.

Here ya go bud!
Scottish Recipes - Scotch Eggs
This is a simple recipe for making a traditional Scottish dish which is often used for a light snack at picnics or "buffet lunches". It can be served hot or cold.
Ingredients:
1lb sausage meat (try to get as best quality that you can afford)
1 large raw egg
3oz approx of dry breadcrumbs
5 hard boiled eggs, with shells removed
Pinch of mace (the outer casing of the nutmeg-this is not an essential)
Some salt, freshly ground pepper
Small quantity of flour
1 tablespoon water
Method:
Dust the hard boiled eggs in a little flour then place aside.
Mix the mace (if available) with a pinch of salt and pepper into the sausage meat and divide into five equal portions. Place this mixture on a floured surface. Wrap/mould the sausage meat round the egg, making sure there are no gaps. If you can, try to roll into a ball shape-this will take a LOT of practice as you will probably squash/mash the eggs before getting it just right. This isn't essential
Beat the egg and water together and coat the meat-covered egg with this and then breadcrumbs (you may have to press the crumbs onto the meat). Deep fry in hot oil (360F/185C) taking care as you put the eggs into the oil as the oil may spurt. Cook for about 5/6 minutes until golden brown.
Drain and serve hot or allow to cool and keep in a refrigerator for a cold snack later.
