Make Scotch Eggs
April 13th, 2007
What is a Scotch Egg? You might be asking. Personally, I’d never heard of this interesting food until last fall when I took my dear hubby to an English-style pub and he ordered this from the appetizer menu.
A Scotch Egg is a hard-boiled egg (peeled from its shell, of course), wrapped in sausage, covered in fine bread crumbs, and deep-fried.
Before continuing, I must apologize to anyone reading this who is interested in low-fat, low-cholesterol, healthy, nutritious or in any way good-for-you food. I am sorry. These foods exist and some people really enjoy them and find it fun to try. I do have some healthier posts, so browse around in my backlog to find something more appropriate.
To go on, I will admit that I have never made a Scotch Egg (yet) but find the idea fascinating and somewhat naughty, so I think I will try it out this weekend with the leftover Easter eggs in my fridge which have gotten very little attention so far.
I’m quite sure I would never have thought of this combination on my own. Since I have yet to make them, and by no means invented this concoction, I will simply post some links that will take you to experienced-Scotch-Egg-makers websites:
That’s it for today folks! One of my kids broke a leg last weekend, literally, and it has slowed me down a bit.
Enjoy your Scotch Eggs, and for heaven’s sake, eat something healthy the next day!
