First Haggis
I bought a can of haggis a while ago having never eaten it before. I had hoped a couple of the guys might come over for a haggis and scotch dinner, but I never really got around to ever planning the evening.
Anyway, I decided I'd try it today, as part of a brunch type meal. Being a sausage fan I thought I'd make a couple of haggis patties, and fry them up. This didn't work too well, as the patties fell apart and ended up being fried up in a fashion that resembles hash.
After the haggis was good and fried up, and I'd mustered the courage, I plated the haggis with a couple of scrambled eggs. The result; not bad. The haggis had quite a mild flavor, and I think it would have been better with something other than eggs. Next time I think I'll add a generous quantity of black pepper, as I think it would have tatsed better that way.
Haggis hasn't jumped to the top of my favorite foods list, but I know know it's something I can stomach. I may even consider mixing it with a little rice, and using it as a stuffing in a bird someday. I think it's flavor might lend it's self to that quite well.
Either way, I'll be cooking it at my annual hunting camp this year. If those Pa boys can get me to eat scrapple for breakfast, I can get them to eat haggis.
