Scottish food
Scottish food is known for its hearty and traditional dishes, often featuring locally sourced ingredients. Popular staples include haggis, a savory pudding made from sheep's offal, oats, and spices, typically served with neeps (turnips) and tatties (potatoes). Other common dishes include Cullen skink, a creamy smoked haddock soup, and stovies, a comforting potato and meat dish.
Seafood is also significant in Scottish cuisine, with fresh catches like salmon and shellfish being widely enjoyed. Additionally, Scotland is famous for its whisky, which is often paired with meals or enjoyed on its own. Traditional desserts like cranachan, made with raspberries, cream, and oats, round out the culinary experience.
