Scottish

We took the dinner over to Rob's homeland this week with some Scottish food. After convincing him not to make hagus, we settled on some pretty tasty, and hearty, dishes. Next week: American Southern!

On the menu:

Scotch Eggs
A classic. Hard-boiled eggs wrapped in sausage and breadcrumbs, then fried and baked til perfectly cooked. If mustard is your thing, these go great with it. If not, no worries, they don't need any. Amazing with beer.

Clapshot and Minced collops
Carrots, turnips, and potatoes make a hearty base to this dish. The puree is flavorful and really sticks to your ribs! Topped with sauteed onion and beef, will oats mixed in.

Shortbread w/ caramel and chocolate
Krissy made short bread that would have been delicious all on it's own, and then covered it in thick caramel and dark chocolate. A small slice will do, but you'll take a big one.
