Scotland is not only known for its beautiful women and handsome men, but also for its national cuisine, Haggis. I don't know if you have heard of a food called Haggis in Scotland, and it is said that Haggis is still the national dish. But friends who know well will know that Haggis's ingredients are made from the offal of sheep. So how can such a heavy dish become a national dish?
Haggis is a traditional Scottish food that dates back more than 1400 years to England. In recent years, Britons and Welsh have been arguing over where to be born. Regardless of the outcome of the debate, however, Haggis has secured his place as one of Scotland's oldest traditional cuisines. Nowadays, many tourists to Scotland, a large part of the reason is to eat this national dish, you can imagine how famous this dish is.
The specific method of cooking this national dish is to put all the internal organs of the sheep into the stomach of the sheep, and then add a variety of vegetables to stew into a smorgasbord, just like the stew in northern China, but the ingredients in the middle have changed. Especially like the dishes we often eat, such as haggis and sheep offal, it is only slightly different, so Chinese still use the original pronunciation of this Scottish national dish, transliterated as Haggis.
Haggis appeared because more than 200 years ago, a great poet named Pence created a poem called "To Haggis", and the name of Haggis's national dish is based on this poem. Later generations not only designated January 25 as "Haggis Night" in his honor, but also positioned Haggis as Scotland's national dish.
Because of its large amount of nutrients, Haggis is believed by Scotland to strengthen the body and improve resistance. The internal organs of sheep contain a lot of protein, coupled with the nutrients in vegetables, it can be described as a very balanced dish. Scots also eat whiskey when eating Haggis, which makes the whole meal more enjoyable and comfortable. If you have a chance to go to Scotland, be sure to try authentic Haggis!
