La Cuisine has a different breed of posters... (food and jokes are the order of business)

Yup....and it's a good thing too.

Haggis is awful! Foul smelling stodge.
IMHO

I love it! But then I relish the flavour of offal meats. It seems people either love or hate offal.

Square sausage = Scottish breakfast to me

edit: Im always up for a dig at Scotsmen !

mmmm squasage

When I was in University (free back in my day) there was a rather independent chap from Scotland who lived with us. He used to put a huge amount of oil in the pan when frying breakfast.

Why would they be drinking Irish whiskey though?




Phenomenal. It is really very good and cheap. You can't really explain it, I think if you tried then it wouldn't sound very appetizing. You must be able to get some in Englandshire. Just have it with mash potatoes & neap. Some oatcakes on the side, and a whisky sauce. Oh, and a dram.

Best cooked breakfast I ever had was a full Scottish in a B+B in Edinburgh. Perfect poached eggs, haggis, black pudding, local meats etc.

Not sure I understand the OP exactly. A 'Scottish' and an 'English' are essentially synonyms for 'cooked breakfast' in those two countries. It's a little cringeworthy that the former was offered and the latter was requested as a substitute when essentially they're the same thing with minor (or in this case no) differences.

It was fairly light hearted, but I was expecting there to be something scotish about it, im not against the idea of a scotish breakfast I was lookin forward to it, i was disappointed

In my opinion a Scottish breakfast should consist of....

Fried Haggis
Tattie Scone
Square Sausage
Bacon
Beans
Fried Egg

You can also add a link sausage or 2, and maybe fried tomato and black pudding.

If it doesn't have fried Haggis, a tattie scone and a square sausage it aint a full Scottish

From someone who lived in Scotland for a while - this.

If I remember correctly then a Scottish breakfast should contain, tattie scone, square sausage, black pudding and fruit pudding plus the usual egg etc.

Fruit pudding is more irish than scottish I think?

 

[FTM]

surely is should have white pudding as well...I love going to scotland! Tesco in Oban have some great stuff I just cannot get here!

yeah this is more like it. From living in scotland all my days i think i have come across haggis once in a breakfast. I do enjoy it but certainly dont miss it either.

Stornaway black pudding and some ayrshire middle bacon.......mmmmmmm

 

[lookitsjonno]

isnt a scottish breakfast the same as an english just served with a can of tennents

I have never seen fruit pudding in Ireland and I lived there for 15 years.

Lol... I was a kid 25 years ago... Do they still do red pudding up there? Sorta slightly spicy sausage a little like a savaloy.

I was in deepest Wales and asked for a full English without thinking, I was politely corrected and enjoyed a lovely breakfast.

Did it come with cockles and lavabread?

You tend to be able to find white pudding in Morrison's in England.
