    You take all of a sheep’s organs, and put them in it’s own stomach, and boil it.

    What’s shown looks more like black pudding, though it could be a ground haggis sausage. Black pudding is a blood sausage using the pigs blood and binders like barley.

      If that doesn’t make you hungry, I dunno what will.

      They also had black pudding (tried that before and it’s pretty tasty). This was similar. I don’t know if it was authentic, but it was quite tasty.

        It probably is. A closer look it seems like it’s a ground haggis filling. Good stuff.

          OK, cool! Very rich and a bit offal-y (which I enjoy). And well spiced. I’m a fan.

                Why do you think the brits conquered the world? If you had to eat un-spiced haggis you’d probably want to do a little slavery and a touch of plunder.

            That looks like the haggis we get here in Glasgow.

            It’s always looked like that. You mostly see the texture of the oats instead of the pluck.

            I highly recommend veggie haggis though. Seriously, it’s good food.

              What goes into veggie haggis? I’d definitely try it.

                According to McSween’s website, their haggis contains:

                Oats, Water, Vegetable Margarine (Palm Oil, Rapeseed Oil, Water, Salt, Emulsifier (E471), Flavouring), Black Kidney Beans (10%), Carrot (5%), Swede (5%), Mushrooms, Red Split Lentils (5%), Rehydrated Onions, Pumpkin Seeds, Sunflower Seeds, Salt, Ground Spices.

              I assume whole organ haggis has gone out of fashion in most places in favour of the ground sort?

                I’m not sure what you mean by “whole organ” haggis. I haven’t seen anything different to what I’ve described in the last 50 years.

                The stuff we have still has pluck… The offal, but it’s always minced.

                Can you find a picture of it? I’d be really interested in seeing if I can get hold of some to try.

                  I got my offal origins mixed up, the dish I was thinking of is a Namibian tribal food that uses the intact organs stuffed into the stomach. I’d filed it away under haggis in my head.
