Haggis and headcheese both sound a bit like scrapple to me. I LOVE SCRAPPLE... so, no more haggis jokes from this Southern Woman! HNY my dear friends. Back to work today (yesterday was a day at home ~ declared National Day of Mourning). I do have time to help clean up the bar... just in time for 193 I'd say

Here's the definition of "head cheese" ...

"Head cheese
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Head cheese (AmE) or brawn (BrE) is in fact not a cheese, but rather a terrine of meat from the head of a calf or pig (sometimes a sheep or cow) that would not otherwise be considered appealing. It may also include meat from the feet and heart. It is usually eaten cold or at room temperature as a luncheon meat.

Historically the cleaned (all organs removed) head was simmered to produce a gelatin (which would form from the bone marrow) containing any incidental meat which came off the head. The more modern method involves adding gelatin to meat, which is then cooked in a mold."

Oh God no....some people will eat any bloody thing !!!!!

Haggis is a traditional Scottish dish. Although there are many recipes, it is normally made with the following ingredients: sheep's 'pluck' (heart, liver, and lungs), minced with onion, oatmeal, suet, spices, and salt, mixed with stock, and traditionally boiled in the animal's stomach for approximately an hour. It somewhat resembles stuffed intestines.

Hows yer appetites now ????...LOL

Well I've had heart and liver and like them from any animal so far but have never tried lung. My dogs love their dehydrated lamb lung though, ha. so I'd give it a try. I'd try head cheese too since the organs(brain, fur ect) are removed.

LOl a friend tried making choicken feet stew for her xhubby once. He cam home said it smelled good and made the mistake of looking in the pot and seeing feet and wouldn't touch it so the dogs were very happy.

Well, I'm at work, and so far, it's quite a relaxing job

Nothing to do but surfing the net, until we suddenly get bombarded with boxes of papers from another building, then we'll be busy! So I'm sitting here looking at cooking sites and found one which has Danish Smørrebrød (open sandwiches), in english. Unfortunately, the Heering recipe isn't there, but I'll be happy to translate if anyone wants it.

So here goes (with pictures)

If you click on "Frokost", you'll get a lot more.

Now, I'll go and drink something unheard off in Thursdays..... a glass of milk with my lunch.
