Scotch Eggs

[David In Indy]

here is an alternative recipe

4 tablespoons dry parsley flakes
1 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons onion salt
1 quart mayonnaise
1 pint sour cream
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons MSG or Accent brand (optional)
1 pint buttermilk

That recipe up there you posted sounds better to me Jess. I'm not a real big fan of sausage.

I'll have to try making those eggs soon because I'm getting more and more intrigued.

That's all you had for dinner? A half an egg?

That doesn't sound like very much!   Hopefully you had a snack later on.

Maybe that's why French women don't get fat

I was surprised, too, when I learned that anchovies are an ingredient in Worcestershire sauce. But Worcestershire is good on steak! 

MSG = monosodium glutamate, a chemical flavor enhancer. Notoriously used in Chinese food, at least, here in the U.S., it can trigger migraines in some people.

I had a scotch egg for lunch today at work - I popped to the supermarket just down the road in my lunch break and they'd got them on special offer, and I couldn't resist!  "Picnic eggs" are quite nice as well - they're a variation on scotch eggs but much smaller - usually with scrambled egg/mayo in the middle with the sausage-meat and breadcrumbs around it - they're usually about an inch in diameter (around 3cm for those metricised youngsters  ).

I was surprised, too, when I learned that anchovies are an ingredient in Worcestershire sauce. But Worcestershire is good on steak! 

Cheese on toast is nice with a dash of Worcestershire sauce as the cheese is melting as well, and adds a bit of flavour (and a smear of mustard as it's melting gives it a bit of a kick too).
