Following on from Kathy R's post about cooking the other day, as it is Burns night, we indulged in a very nice haggis, tatties & neeps for tea tonight. Anyone else celebrating the occasion today. Has Haggis even made it anywhere outside the UK? It is probably somewhat unique to home but if you have never tried it you don't know what you are missing.

@erinb If you have any, a wee dram of whisky  might provide a more authentic insight. From the Highlands of course. Not absolutely essential but almost 😉 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🤝🇺🇸

Hi Sasha

I don't know whether you saw this? (rewritten to avoid copyright infringement!)

Scotland’s largest haggis maker is creating a new recipe so that it can be sold in America for the first time in more than 50 years. Traditional haggis was banned in the US in 1971 after they ruled food containing offal - sheep lung - was unfit for human consumption. Now Macsween of Edinburgh is working on substituting the ingredient with sheep heart, while preserving the traditional blend of spices, oatmeal and fat.

It will give millions of Americans the chance to sample haggis made in Scotland for the first time in decades. Over the years, petitions to end the American ban have been made by former environment secretaries There have been stories of smuggled, bootleg and blackmarket haggis.

Managing director of the company, James Macsween, said: “In response to this long-standing ban, we have been innovating to create a compliant version of haggis without compromising the dish’s authentic flavours and texture."

Well, thank you very much, James Macsween. That's an end to my lucrative career as a haggis smuggler 🙁

@ellyd22   The cranachan  recipe sounds intoxicating to say the least.   Can’t understand  banning haggis here.  We put every part of animals in our hot dogs and baloney.  Some eat pigs snouts  and feet.  My running joke on hot dogs is they contain chicken lips.  LOL

@ellyd22 Bootleg haggis! that's hilarious. This may indeed give millions of Americans a chance to try the glorious beastie. Whether they will avail themselves of said opportunity is another thing entirely. Guess you will just have to park up your hagosub or seek another product. Marmite or pickled onion monster munch perhaps?

Sasha, it's a disastrous development for me.

I still have a lockup full of as-yet-unsmuggled haggis that I'll now have to find other markets for.

Since it will be sitting there for longer than anticipated, I'm also going to have to find increasingly inventive ways to distract the sniffer dogs.

Marmite and pickled onion monster munch, sprinkled liberally in the vicinity, could do the trick - thank you for the inspiration 🙂

@ellyd22 That would certainly put the sniffer dogs off. Unless they come from Newcastle, in that case it might attract them, Hmmm a cautious approach is warranted here.

That may well have been in late summer, when the young are dispersing and setting up new territories.

A few often appear well out of their usual range at that time. Being on their own, and away from the safety of the herd, they're easily picked off by predators.

Having had time to do a little more digging, I've found out that there's a reintroduction scheme on Bodmin Moor that I didn't know about.

The haggis there are still in pens since there isn't yet government approval for release, but it seems certain that this is where the sightings at Brown Willy originate from.

As is well known, haggis are very good at scaling even the highest of fences.

I have to say, it would be lovely to see them back in Cornwall. The last official sighting of a genuinely wild haggis there was in 1542.

I'm guessing it's not everybody's cup of tea. But I remember eating haggis , neeps and tatties in a pub after visiting John O' Groats. I loved it, and still buy a small haggis now and again.

I don't ever remember when it's Burns Night, but it's not too late to raise a glass of whisky to Rabbie.

Slange Var !

Has Haggis even made it anywhere outside the UK? It is probably somewhat unique to home but if you have never tried it you don't know what you are missing.

Oh, haggis is known outside of the highlands. Half of my family came from Inverness, but there is no way that I will get close to sheep's pluck encased in a stomach, "somewhat unique" or not.

Hi Sasha, about 30 years ago one of my team members (a young man from Scotland) was seconded to TEPCO in Japan for 3 months. By way of "thanks" he brought me back a Japanese Haggis 😊 .

I cannot remember what I made of it, but since I have never had a "real" Haggis from Scotland I wouldn't be able to compare.

@fembecky A Japanese Haggis! I've never heard of those before but I'd give it a try. Based on previous experience of foreign versions of British classics I'd guess the resemblance is somewhat vague but it would be an experience. I still have nightmares about a weird pink Kit Kat I had in Singapore (Uhhhh, shivers)

@sashabennett Perhaps interesting to note that Japanese whisky is also quite possibly creeping up on the authentic wee dram from the Highlands. Suntory Toki is amongst my favourite tipples. If they can do this with whisky, I’m sure they can master the modern (ie with the taste but sans offal) haggis as well.

@valentina16 Indeed. I first came across Japanese whisky many years ago at work when the boss got a bottle from a supplier during a visit. I thought it was a bit odd to be honest (not the taste, I never got to try it) as it  was full of gold leaf! it looked like some kind of boozy snow globe, but I understand that this sort of thing is quite popular over there. Seems like a waste of good gold to me but hey, if that's your thing then who am I to disagree.

@sashabennett In North Carolina, where I now live, there is a butcher from Scotland called The Scottish Gourmet, based in Greensboro, NC (150 miles from my house). He makes and sells haggis using local stuff. It's $19 per pound for frozen, and he does a 2lb presentation haggis in "natural casing" for $40. I have never bought from him yet. Grants Haggis in tins doesn't make it through customs but a company called Stahly from Glenrothes sells via Amazon which does make it to my house. However, Stahly's haggis in tins is pretty much "meh", compared to Grant's.

@michaela2001 It's all down to the spice blend. I've tried a few different varieties over the years, most of which were different but usually pretty good. Sadly our local butcher is one of the not so good ones but the local supermarket does one of the best. Go figure!

@sashabennett As far as tins of haggis goes, I found Grant's to be top in my list of good haggis. I used to travel the UK servicing bakery equipment many years ago, and always picked up Grants from Coop in South Queensferry, then stopped at a butchers somewhere near Dalkeith to collect an order of haggis puddings. Loved them!

You might be interested to know that a lot of Scots settled in North Carolina back in the 1700s, consequently, there are things like Highland Games go on in a few places around here. I attended the Scotland County Highland Games earlier this year. There were more people in kilts that I ever saw at the Braemar Games! And, their interpretation of a caber left a lot to be desired. LOL

I'll send you an interesting link about the settling of Scots here.

@michaela2001 Thanks, i'll look forward to reading that. I now have a mental image of a load of burly chaps chucking a toothpick about LOL. I am kind of not surprised about an exodus though, many people leave just to get away from the miserable weather, although with global warming I'm hoping it will turn into a tropical hotspot (maybe a bit ambitious but I like a positive outlook)

I think the impression of people in kilts is a bit like that of the bowler hatted English gent, a bit of a caricature. Having said that there is one chap round here who is always in one but he is in the minority. Also I think the idea of tinned haggis would cause something of an outrage in the world of Scottish cuisine so I would keep that under my hat if I were you 🤣

@sashabennett That's EXACTLY what it looked like! Burly chaps throwing toothpicks. Me, being a legal resident over here, kept my mouth shut, for fear of deportation. LOL

If you do facebook, just look up Scotland County Highland Games. They got loads of photos of the recent games on there, And for the caber to flex when it hits the ground!!! That's just wrong. Bless them though, they are keeping their heritage alive and that's important.

@michaela2001 Circumspection is probably wise in this case, we don't want to re-enact the clearances do we 😀 It's probably best to just let them have their fun & go with the flow. 

Re my previous comment, Mrs B informs me that they sell tinned haggis in the local supermarket! This makes me sad 😔 I had expected better of the local environment. Ah well, modern times, tsk!

@shawndyglitterfiend There is no reason why not. Depends on how good your butcher is. It's more down to the blend rather than what's in it. As long as there is plenty of pepper it stands a chance. It warms my heart to hear that this local delicacy isn't completely unknown across the pond.

I'm currently on a five week cruise around the Caribbean. Which is why I've gone a bit quiet. The haggis was piped in at the grand atrium on the boat. At dinner my starter was haggis, neeps and tatties in a pretty little tartlet. Quite delish.

On a side note, although crossdressing has not been at the forefront of my thoughts during my trip, there's a tall woman always dancing to live music. She's always beautifully dressed and elegant, but for some reason I have her down as a man. No reason for it but it titillates me. I mentioned it to my wife, which is the first time I've ever commented on the subject. Baby steps.
