| Scottish Smoked Salmon, ready to eat right out of the package. Now I myself didn't know about this until earlier this week but when introduced to it I bought a package of my own. It is so delicious!!! |
 |
| The Smoked Salmon is from the Uig Lodge, I have yet to go there myself but had a friend pick it up for me. |
 |
| Cranachan a Scottish dessert. Whipped cream, whiskey honey , raspberries and toasted oatmeal. I have seen some with a shortbread base but they seem to vary from place to place. |
As for breakfast it is pretty much exactly the same as an English breakfast (Sausages, bacon, eggs, black pudding, beans, roasted tomatoes, fried mushrooms and a tattie scone)
The Tattie Scone is what I wanted to talk about since the name in my mine would make me think of an English Scone. Instead it is actually a potato pancake/scone. It is mashed potatoes and butter minus the milk and then salted, after that they add flour to the mixture and make it into a dough. Then it is rolled out and put on a pan or baked in the oven. They can be pizza shaped or little circles.
I really like potato scones, then again I really like potato pancakes! One day I hope I can travel around Europe and try the many different kinds of potato pancakes. Lastly, I have to mention Irn Bru since it is the Scottish beverage that has made its way around the world. The only reason that I mention this drink since I don't drink a lot of pop/fizzy/caffeinated are the adverts. I think they are all quite amusing.
