  1. Haggis

    * 1 cleaned sheep or lamb’s stomach bag
    * 2 lb. dry oatmeal
    * 1 lb. chopped mutton suet
    * 1 lb. lamb’s or deer’s liver, boiled and minced
    * 1 pint (2 cups) stock the heart and lights of the sheep, boiled and minced
    * 1 large chopped onion
    * ½ tsp. each: cayenne pepper, Jamaica pepper, salt and pepper

    Toast the oatmeal slowly until it is crisp, then mix all the ingredients (except the stomach bag) together, and add the stock. Fill the bag just over half full, press out the air and sew up securely. Have ready a large pot of boiling water, prick the haggis all over with a large needle so it does not burst and boil slowly for 4 to 5 hours. Serves 12.

    Haggis did NOT originate in Scotland. It was known in Ancient Greece, Rome, France and England. Until Burns wrote his Address to a Haggis in 1786 there was nothing that made it peculiarly Scottish. Now – 200 years later – most people believe haggis to be both Scottish and tasty.

    Souse

    Head cheese, also called souse and brawn, is a jellied loaf or sausage. Originally it was made entirely from the meaty parts of the head of a pig or calf, but now can include edible parts of the feet, tongue, and heart. The head is cleaned and simmered until the meat falls from the bones, and the liquid is a concentrated gelatinous broth. Strained, the meat is removed from the head, chopped, seasoned and returned to the broth and the whole placed in a mold and chilled until set, so it can be sliced.

    -or better yet-

    STUFFED PIG'S STOMACH (HOG MAW)

    INGREDIENTS

    1 large pig's stomach, well cleaned of all fat
    1 pound fresh link sausage, cut into 1/2-inch slices
    1 pound smoked linked sausage, cut into 1/2-inch slices
    6-8 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
    2 medium onions, coarsely chopped
    2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (or to taste)
    Salt and pepper to taste (go easy on salt depending on sausage)
    3 tablespoons flour, mixed with 3 tablespoons cool water until smooth to make a paste (slurry)
    Mix together sausages, potatoes and onions. Add parsley, salt and pepper. Sew small opened end of stomach with cooking twine to close. Stuff sausage mixture into stomach, pressing well with each addition. Stomach has a lot of elasticity and will stretch to almost any size necessary. When all stuffing has been placed inside, close open end with twine.

    Place stuffed stomach in shallow roasting pan. Roast in preheated 350° F oven until potatoes are tender (check by inserting thin sharp knife into middle) about 2 hours. Baste about every 20 minutes with water or pan juices.

    Remove stomach from roasting pan. Drain off most of the fat. Make the flour paste in a small bowl. Place pan on burner on top of stove. Add 2 cups of water and bring to a boil, scraping up all of the browned bits in the bottom of the pan. Gradually add flour paste, whisking rapidly and constantly, until the gravy thickens.

    To serve, slice stomach into 1 inch thick slices. Pass gravy separately

  9. Sheep's Head and Rotting Shark

    In February the people of Iceland celebrate an old tradition called Thorrablot—a festival of feasts. The feast is comprised of some unusual delicacies: rams' testicles, sheep's heads, and rotting shark. Although these dishes strike most outsiders as vile, for Icelanders the feasts are potent ways to preserve their Viking heritage.

    It also provides a bonding experience for Icelanders. "By eating these foods—which can be hard to eat—you prove your tie to the community," Rothschild said.

    Another revolting dish is sheeps head soup, A once common
    Australian dish

    1 sheep's head and trotters
    1 lb. (450g) scrag of mutton
    1 lb. (450g) turnips
    1 lb. (450g) carrots
    1 lb. (450g) onions
    4 oz. (125g) pearl barley
    8 pints of cold water
    salt and pepper
    1 tsp. chopped parsley

    Cooking Instructions:

    Wash, peel and quarter the vegetables
    Put the sheep's head and trotters in a pan of cold water and bring slowly to the boil

    Throw away the water
    Put 8 pints of cold water into the pan with the sheep's head and trotters, add a little salt and bring slowly to the boil
    When they are boiling, skim the stock and lower the heat
    Simmer the meat gently for 3 hours, removing the scrag and trotters after two hours. Cut the meat from the scrag
    When the stew is done, put back the meat and trotters, add the parsley and season to taste

    After cooking for about five minutes, put the sheep's head, trotters and
    vegetables into a serving dish and ladle the broth into soup bowls

  12. Place Carp on 2x4
    I let a carp go in a mate's swimming pool.
    It has not been chlorinated since then and
    now it is two years later. There is movement
    in the pool (despite it being opaque with algae)
    so it's still alive. No one dares to go try and catch
    it. Could be hugh by now

    Go for a swim I doubt it has grown, fish adapt to there enviroment. Goddamn things around here get to be almost 3.5 feet long in the river. Sucks when you latch onto one because you don't want to let it go until you know what it is, don't want to miss that once in a life time catch.

    A fresh water man huh? Well I'm a salty myself. Less art in the cast but more fight in the bite .

    You should come
    with us when we go salt water fishing the South. That is where they filmed the real shark sequences for Jaws. It is nothing to have your whole rig ripped out of your arms. It gets a bit hairy in the gulf but after you drink too much it does not matter .

    I know it's nothing to compare to the size of open water but there is some pretty big fish swimming not more than 100 yds. from me.


    This is the one everyone wants.....

  17. Haggis is actually pretty nice, another thing that tasted good but sounds pretty nasty is black pudding. It is basically fried congealed pigs blood and fat. Yum, lovely with a good British fry-up.

    There is a similar Mexican dish of pig intestines fried up in its own blood.
    His name was MackemX

    That's quite a theory but very plausible.

    I'd try the haggis as there is no particularly disgusting organ involved.What are "lights"?those could be bad.Sounds like a sugar coating of something gross.

    I used to cook in a Korean restaurant.Have tried tripe soup.Its ok.Tried bamboo beetle grubs when trekking through Thailand.They were quite good. Fried with a little oil and salted they tasted like bacon. I wont eat nervous tissue or gutty-wuts.Intact anyway.which brings us to an important point.Hot dogs.The shit then goes into those,man! You got parts in there far worse than haggis.
