What is "haggis"?
Haggis is a traditional Scottish dish that consists of a mixture of minced sheep's heart, liver, and lungs, which is seasoned with onions, oatmeal, and spices, and then cooked inside a sheep's stomach. The dish is typically served with neeps (turnips) and tatties (potatoes) and is a staple of Scottish cuisine. Haggis has a rich and savory flavor and is often enjoyed as a hearty meal during special occasions such as Burns Night, a celebration of the life and works of the Scottish poet Robert Burns. The dish has a long history in Scotland and is considered a national dish, although it can be an acquired taste for those who are not accustomed to its unique flavor and texture.
