Haggis is Scotland’s ancestral meal — a savory pudding made from sheep’s pluck (heart, liver, and lungs), minced with onion, oatmeal, suet, spices, and stock, traditionally encased in a sheep’s stomach (now often artificial) and boiled. It is typically served with “neeps and tatties” (mashed turnips and potatoes). Usually “observed” on Hogmanay (Scots New Year) it symbolizes resourcefulness, using humble offal for a nourishing meal, and national pride.
