Haslet? Yummy! A bit like Faggots and gravy, or sage and onion stuffing ,or brussels, or Marmite, or Twiglets. You either love it or hate it!

I love all the above but don't come near me if I've had some!

Phoooooooey! :D

[ninjagal600]

I remember something called chicklin (not sure if thats how you spell it) my dad used to cover it with vinegar and pepper and i used to sit by him waiting for some...didnt realise it was the guts of a animal till i was older.....makes me feel really sick thinking about it.... :eek:

[Dougie]

Ain't gonna tell you what's in haggis,then........

[Yoda]

Ain't gonna tell you what's in haggis,then........

Go on then tell me i know it leftover bits, but from what i aint exactly sure

i had haggis for the first time last year when i went upto Kelso
sort of reminded me of black pudding with gritty bits in it

[Dougie]

Okay then....
Sheep's heart liver & lungs with oatmeal and seasonings,traditionally cooked in a sheep's stomach.
These days it more usually comes in plastic,batter or a tin.

YUM YUM!

various types of offal including liver and lights (lungs) mixed with onions herbs and breadcrumbs.

i had to google to find it though

you see its the fact that it looks like meat(ish) and has gravy that makes it more appealing

[Dougie]

Not that different from haggis then....

Feeling better now do we? :eek: :p

[Doro]

never heard of haslet


loves haggis and black pudding

hates faggots and then scotch egg things :)

[Sir Ewok]

I've eaten Haslet as a kid and as an adult, though not recently. You have to remember that as you grow up your tastes change and things you adored years ago can be very disappointing now, even if they taste the same. I used to hate Branston pickle as a kid, but now I could sit and eat a jarful with a spoon, especially if I've had a drink or three and have the munchies....

i think they are called chitlins NG
its the intestine of the cow,,,,all cleaned out then boiled,,,
i used to love it when i was a kid but aint been able to buy it for about 25 years? my gran used to put vinegar pepper and salt on too,,,,lurvely :p

[dracken1]

years ago haslet was mainly spicy lamp and pork and was a brown/green colour.and had a lot in common with kebab meat
now it is usually more of a red colour and has a lot of bacon in it. and not so spicy.
it does not taste as good as it used to.

a good haggis is just that, good..
a bad haggis though tastes like kak.

a welsh delicacy which unfortunatly we are not allowed to make anymore is
"canu tarw" which means "bull ring" (no not A bulls ring)
you would sizzle fry one brummie in welsh salted butter and chopped wild garlic leaves, season to taste.
ah those old recipes were good.
if a brummie was'nt available (which is bloody rare)
you could use geordy but they needed to be boiled up for a long time first as they are a bit chewy :D

[Doro]

nowt wrang with tripe n onions pet

[haggis-muncher]

Whenever I am down in England at a rally,I always tell a local lassie when asked that I'm a professional haggis hunter,running round the mountains up here chasing them with a spear :D The number of people that believe me is unbelievable.

[kitkatman]

what about the bedfordshire clanger..
a big puff pastry roll with spicy mince, onions and potatoes one end and jam rolly polly stuck at the other..
the whole idea was that once you had eaten one end, you fire the other bit down your head strait away and hey presto, only one plate to wash up..
if you want to try it, there's a bakery in sandy, beds, that still makes them, thats if the pikies ain't trashed it again ( if so, try in 6 months)

my opion, ****e.....you try biting one end and burn your nuts when the contents of the other end pop out! maybe i should invest in a plate :D

Wotcha.

"Chitterlings" are the critters. You can still get 'em, but it's becoming a struggle these days.

that as made me feel real sick this time of the morning :eek:

[Sir Ewok]

Not sure what the meat was, but it's the aspic jelly that melts (same stuff as in pork pies).

[blackhack]

I'm a sad individual, but here's the recipie for "Brawn"



Brawn

1/2 pig's head, including the tongue but not the brains
2 pig's trotters
500g (1 lb) shin of beef
2 cloves garlic, chopped
bouquet garni
10 black peppercorns
2 tablespoons wine vinegar
salt

2 onions each stuck with 2 cloves
2 carrots, quartered
2 leeks, split

Put all the meat into a large pot. Cover with water and add garlic,
bouquet garni, peppercorns, vinegar, salt, onion, carrots, and
leeks. Bring to a boil, skim and lower heat. Cover and simmer
for 2 hours, or until meat is tender and comes easily off the bone.
Cool and pull all the meat off the bone, chopping coarsely. Set
aside.

Strain the stock and boil until reduced. Add meat and adjust
seasonings.

Cool meat and stock, pour a layer into a loaf tin. Refrigerate
until set. Sprinkle with chopped herbs, lay hardboiled eggs along
the center, and cover with more meat and stock. Refrigerate until
set. Turn out and press into toasted breadcrumbs. Eat cold with
salad, mustard, potatoes and buttered rye bread.

[Friar Tuck]

I'm trying to decide whether she meant "bring some up for you" as in purchase some and give it you the next time she sees you. Or, literally "bring it up" in one big Barfing! :confused:
