Scotch Eggs

posted by [personal profile] ctseawa at 02:06pm on 26/01/2009 under
Yesterday was Robert Burns's 250th Birthday, cause for much celebration.

Schultzy's, my favorite "Ave restaurant" did a Burns's Night party but I couldn't go because I was in Canada. They served Scotch Eggs (hard boiled eggs, shelled, coated in sausage & deep fried. MMMMMMmmmm). The owner had told me about the party and I told him I wasn't going to be able to make it.

He saved me two eggs. Isn't he nice?

I'm now on the outside of one of them. The other is sitting in a to-go box, calling my name.

I wonder if the statins are up to this challenge? Maybe I should whip up some mayo to go on it?

Mmmm. Scotch eggs. I make a point of buying some from the supermarket when I have visiting Americans or Canadians to see what they make of them. Some are extremely dubious until they try them.

Egg and sausage. What's to be dubious about?

I dunno. Maybe the combination and the deep friedness? I don't get it...

It's fairly easy with bulk sausage. Don't try to use links, it won't work so well.

There's a little place here in Portland called the Rose and Thistle that makes an awesome plate of scotch eggs, complete with a home made honey mustard sauce. A plate of those, a pint of Boddington's cream ale, and a game of darts and you've got yourself a well balanced meal.

I hope to be down there sometime in March. Would you care to show me this place of wonders?

If my work schedule cooperates, I'd be up for grabbing some grub.

It's their second annual one. The signs usually go up in early January. Just watch their special activities posts. :)
