Brewman 1,192 Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 Evenings folks I have a haggis just under a lb in weight but it's frozen. Do I boil it from frozen or defrost it first. And how long should it be boiled for. Cheers Brewman Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mister Gain 1,760 Posted November 8, 2014 Report Share Posted November 8, 2014 When I used to buy the occasional lamb carcass from a smallholding for processing, I would always request the pluck (heart, lungs, liver) and make my own haggis. Wife wouldn't touch it, but quite happy eating lambs liver and loves chicken livers.. funny things women, defy logic sometimes. So I used to make single good sized portions using plastic casings, and always have some in the freezer. Also used to make black puddings, but with dried pigs blood. And my own faggotts, no old crap in them like commercial ones. Even used to make offal pies. Used to make brawn, cured and smoked pigs cheeks, come to think of it there wasn't very much of the carcass that didn't pass through my digestive system. 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
