Did you try "stovies" when you were in Scotland ? It's another national dish made with beef or chicken stock, onions, potatoes and corned beef sometimes added. It's served with oatcakes on the side. It's just delicious and great if you're actively hiking. A porridge breakfast and stovie lunch and you are good all day long.
Clotted cream fudge, oh my! I eat gluten free, ie no flour, bread, cakes, cookies, etc. Do you know if restaurants are mindful of gluten free cooking in Scotland? I’m going to Edinburgh, highlands, Isle of Sky, and Isle of Iona. You seem to the food well.

Hello from my current abode in Australia. I am formerly from Drumnadrochit in Scotland, which I still miss terribly. My father had a saying: *You can take the boy out of Scotland, but you will never take Scotland out of the boy!* I was delighted that you enjoyed our cuisines. As a matter of fact; it will be *HOGMANAY* (New Years Day) in two ays time.

I amdetermined that when I go to that great Highlands in the sky; they will bury my bones at home, in my beloved Highlands. *Slàinte Mhath!*
Good choices on the whole. Shows we don't eat very healthily here but it tastes good. Afternoon teas are more in England especially Devon Cream Teas. I like them though occasionally. 😊
I am not sure that Sticky Toffee Pudding is an ancient dish. It is absolutely delicious, and does seem to have been popularised in the UK, but I do not recall seeing it anywhere before the 1970s.
@@JSBuehler it's because of TB apparently despite the fact that the lung is cooked over and over reducing the risk of TB to an absolute miracle level it's still a risk.
Yes my favorite was the traditional Fish and Chips, had it in Weymouth, England during my 6th Fleet Deployment, at some Pub right across from a beach. My ship also pulled in at Largs, Scotland, had a chance to see Glasgow, hour a way [Train ride], it was overcast and cold everyday.
I would recommend to taste it next time: Shortbread, leek and tattie soup, oatcakes, freshly baked rolls with fried runny eggs 😋 I stopped eating meat after I had my best local steak and lamb lasagna, since then I’m vegan but definitely worth a try (all traditional Scottish meals are superb if it freshly made 😊)🏴❤️
2:38 Pronounced SKON everywhere except in Scone where they're pronounced SKOON. Traditionally, the Kings of Scotland were crowned while seated on the STOON of SKONE.
The "Scottish breakfast" was some Boutique arrangement totally unlike a real one which would have swamped the plate with greasy goodness. Also Irn Bru is basically just sugary water with orange coloring !
Sgadan and Marag-gheal are also ones to try. It's interesting that haggis would be illegal to sell in the US, considering that Cajun Boudin is very similar. Loved the video, and now I'm hungry, thank you very much! 😂🤣😋
They don't sell Scottish haggis in the USA because of mad cow disease. They won't even accept blood donations in the USA from Brits who lived through the mad cow disease period. Haggis is sold in the USA, but it's made in the USA and doesn't include some of the offal that they put in Scottish made haggis.
Chicken breast stuffed with cooked haggis and wrapped in smokey bacon. Air fry or oven cook. Serve with whisky sauce (mustard sauce made with some whisky in place of milk).
Great question. I think most were walk-ins except Isle of Skye, where we legit only ate dinner and breakfast at the hotel and then a bag of chips and cake for lunch because Portree was so packed
The "full Scottish Breakfast" appears to be identical to the "full Irish Breakfast" we had when visiting there, and which also appears to match the "full English Breakfast". I guess it's common throughout the British Isles.
When I visited Scotland, I ate some delicious Lamb Stew with homemade bread that was A+. Another place, the Haggis & Tatters (sweet potatoes) were very good. Don’t be afraid to eat them. Plus, best fresh Salmon with rosemary sauce.
Just back from a wee camping trip to Skye. The pizza from Portree's 'Pizza In The Skye' is the best I have ever tasted - truly exceptional. I'd just add, when in my home town of Edinburgh you must explore the gin scene. There are some fantastic small distilleries here. Some of the best are in my own neighbourhood of Leith.
@@robrenwick4591if we start looking into the history, i reckon 1/2 of these would be excluded. Especially Afternoon Tea and Indian food. As it is, Scotland is producing and selling as much if not more gin than Whisky at the moment so should definitely be looked at. Edinburgh alone has 6 gin distilleries.
we're gearing up for our next trip to scotland. I'm handicapped by a near total revulsion to seafood. and because of that, I think scones are the only thing we didn't make it to trying out of your list. we missed out on a trip 2 years ago, and I had a list of things to try - but now I have to find it again.
Damn!!!! Adam and Madalyn. You have made me feel so homesick. watching you eat all my favourite foods brought a wee tear to may eye. For starters, any one who eats Porridge with salt, Honey, milk sugar or any other additive should be Flayed, Hanged Drawn and Quartered. You did not try the Arbroath Smokie . The Arbroath smokie is haddock, smoked over hardwood, in and around the small fishing town of Arbroath, Angus (Forfarshire) in east Scotland. Now you have missed one of the finest dishes of all. ROTFL, so you didn't try a deep fried Mars Bar eh! Try one of those at your own peril, but make sure to bring your own defibrillator, and a cardiac surgeon with you. Thanks for sharing. Great Video!
Scotland has some of the best fish, lamb (heather grazed and superior to New Zealand ), and smoked salmon in the world.......dont miss it. Sticky toffee pudding keeps me coming back to Scotland.
New Zealand lamb is all Halal i.e. the animal is slaughtered by having its throat cut with no pre-stunning, while a Moslem prayer is read over it as it bleeds to death. Barbaric.
As a Scotsman, the first time I had ever seen or tasted Scotch Eggs, was when i was 17, from a NAAFI van near Farnborough, Hampshire, England. Scotch Eggs are *not* Scottish, contrary to popular belief.
I haven't been to Scotland in 50 years, but I've had them many times at The Argyll in North Arlington, New Jersey. (Sadly, it was a casualty of thye Covid lockdown.) It was located just down the road from the Sopranos butcher shop (sadly, also gone.)@@robrenwick4591
Im from Scotland but only been home 3 times in the last 12 years, but im going back for a week holiday this month and I cant wait im going to make a point of eating everything on this video. But you forgot Scotch pie, Morning rolls, Venison,
Hi Madalyn and adam, yeah there are great scottish farms in scotland for salmong, but the also the norway does great farmed salmon, watching your videos, i see you like the smoked salmon, I was a manager of a wholesale fish market in london, for 10 years, so i know my fish seafood and you did have the best. We had a tour one time, from a smoked salmon producer, was really great experience.
Haggis itself isn't illegal in the US, but lungs are "unfit for human consumption." I've had Haggis in Scotland and in the US, where it was made with kidneys instead of lungs. It was weird, because the kidney flavor dominated. In my home town, the Polish Americans had a dish called Kishka. It was made with chicken . . . ingredients. There's a polka, popular at weddings, called "Who Stole my Kishka?" You really liked Black Pudding so much that it's worth stealing!
Great video. Just a few points from a Scot here. It was a prawn and not a languistine. Also, eggs benedict is from new york not scotland 😊 finally, the scottish breakfast looked a bit spare. It should be a bit bigger. Finally, its just "whisky" not "scotch" in Scotland. Otherwise, nice job.
True haggis is not legal in the U.S. because it's believed that eating it will cause turberkulousis( sorry bad spelling. Nobody has ever gotten TB in Scotland. I've had canned haggis with eggs. It's really good. I love scallops. They are my favorite sea food.
The title of this video is misleading, as many of these foods aren't actually Scottish in origin (eg, Eggs Benedict was invented in NYC, ie, traditionally American). Cullen skink, haggis with neeps and tatties, and Scotch whisky, sure, but what about oatcakes?
If you were visiting our hometown of Chicago we’d recommend you try deep dish pizza. Chicago is far from Italy. In Skye, Glencoe, Islay and Glasgow we found great little pizza spots to eat at or take to go. We saw seafood risotto on numerous menus especially near the coasts. This isn’t a list of foods that originated in Scotland. It’s a list of foods one visiting Scotland should consider trying.
American with Scottish ancestry here. I'm still upset I can't try haggis cus the gov't won't allow people to sell lungs as an offal due to some tuberculosis scare in the past.
She said Black Pudding not blood pudding .butchers all over Scotland make their own version of Black Pudding and Haggis so there are slight differences to the basic recipe .
