<\/span>Traditional Haggis, Tatties, and Neeps<\/span><\/h2>\n
<\/div>\n
There are a couple of special celebration nights in Scotland\u2014Burns Night\u00a0and Hogmanay\u2014when the traditional dish of haggis,\u00a0tatties, and neeps is served. Haggis is a famous Scottish preparation similar to black pudding in texture, made out of sheep's offal (lung, liver, heart), spices, onions, and suet, and cooked in the animal's stomach. Nowadays, it's normally cooked in casings rather than the stomach. It is always served with mashed\u00a0potatoes (called "tatties") and mashed turnips (called "neeps").<\/span>
<\/div>Keep in mind that depending on where you are located, neeps may mean something different. In England, neeps are considered turnips. However, in Scotland, neeps are considered rutabaga.\u00a0Swede\u00a0(Swedish or white turnips) are also called neeps.<\/span>
<\/div>The haggis makes or breaks this recipe, so\u00a0make sure you buy a good quality haggis, be it traditional meat or a vegetarian type. A wee dram of\u00a0Scotch whisky\u00a0would be traditional to accompany this truly Scottish meal.<\/span><\/div>\n
