Prep - (2-1/4 hrs - 35 min work (with synthetic
cases))
- Prepare your casing. for Synthetic Casing, just soak in water a few
minutes. For Beef Bung, soak at least 4 hours and clean well - turn inside
out for stuffing. For Sheep Stomach, if it's a cleaned commercial product,
soak in salted water overnight, then turn inside out for stuffing. If
you've disassembled your own sheep, you have a whole lot of cleaning to
do first.
- IF using Honeycomb Tripe for "Lungs", bring it to a boil in
water to cover, acidulated with Lemon Juice or Citric Acid. Discard
water and rinse well.
- Place HEART, LIVER, "LUNGS" and MEAT in a
pot of water to cover. Bring to a boil for 2 minutes. Pour out into a
clean sink. Clean pot and rinse crud off the meats, returning them to
the pot (this gives you a clean cooking liquid). Cover with Water, bring
to a boil, and simmer 2 hours.
- Remove Solids from the pot, leaving liquid in the pot.
- Meanwhile: Chop SUET small.
- Chop ONIONS medium. Place in a pan with the Butter and
fry slowly stirring until soft. Set aside.
- Heat Oven to 325°F/165°C. Spread OATS on a baking sheet
and bake in the oven for about 12 minutes. They should not be noticeably
browned, but should be aromatic. Cool and set aside.
Run - (2-3/4 hrs - 40 min work (with synthetic
cases))
- Cut Heart, Liver, "Lungs", and Meat into
small pieces. Discard fat, gristle, and strong membranes from all - and
the windpipe from real lungs.
- Run all Meats, Onions, and Suet in a food
processor, but not to mush. There should still a fair amount of texture.
- Mix together All Items. Mix in enough of the reserved Cooking
Liquid to make a slurry that is not quite pourable.
- Tie one end of your casing and stuff it - not stuffed too tight as the
contents will expand some. Squeeze out as much air as you can and tie the
end you stuffed from. For synthetic casing leave a bit of slack in the
end as you tie it. If using Beef Bung, you can make ties in the length
to make smaller Haggis. If using Sheep Stomach, sew up the openings.
- Place the Haggis in the pot with remaining cooking liquid. Add
more water to completely submerge it. Bring to a boil, turn to a simmer
and simmer covered until at least 165°F/75°C in the center. 2
hours for synthetic casing or beef bung, probably 3 hours for sheep
stomach.
- Serve with Neeps & Tatties
and Whisky Sauce. The Haggis will
keep several days in the fridge, or can be frozen, and can be used many
other ways.
