Come on #Scotland, I need a foolproof recipe for #TattieScones or potato scones if you would prefer but not potato farles. The shops in Cornwall, for some reason have stopped selling them, even the tory Warburton ones have vanished. So please help a Scottish lass in exile in Cornwall to remember hame wi a good recipe and tell me how you make yours? I can get proper black pud and square sausage nae bother but hame made tattie scones have tae be the best, nae? #Help#Recipes
@Wen Was thinking of poached eggs as decent haggis here is a luxury. Did you see they found a piper haggis recently? An amazing wee beastie with 6 legs.
@Wen Yes, the supermarkets have their offerings but I use a Scottish butchers for all the good stuff. Although, for me, the best square sausage is from the barras but nobody knows what beef ham is, sadly.
The hillside ones are too easy to catch. The males with shorter left legs and the females with shorter right legs. Just chase them round the hills into nets. But no, the woodland ones sit in branches of trees waiting for passing walkers to drop on. Whereas the pipers emit a deathly squeal, rendering their prey deaf and so easier to creep up to.
@RosePuckey difficult to tell in the North of England. I have heard whispers of a Yorkshire variant - ‘Gods own Pipes’ but Newcastle is sensitive about mentioning them.
