Islay-born cook Heather Dewar explores the world of Scottish cuisine using her favourite cookery book: F Marian McNeill's The Scots Kitchen.
A ceann-gropaig gu b脿irnich 's bunt脿ta, chan eil leabhar c貌caireachd ann coltach ris an 'Scots Kitchen' aig F. Marian NicN猫ill. Sa phr貌gram seo tha Fraoch Nic an De貌ir a 脤le a'r霉rach san leabhar ch貌caireachd is fhe脿rr leatha. Tro bhriathran Floss Marian NicN猫ill air biadh nan daoine agus am beatha l脿itheil, tha Fraoch a'coimhead air c貌caireachd na h-Alba. Chan e mh脿in gu bheil i a'cur e貌las air eachdraigh a'bh矛dhe, agus seann sgeulachdan mu dheidhinn - tha i ga dh猫anamh na cidsin fh猫in.
'S iomadh rud a bhathar ag ithe uairigin nach eil buileach ri ar c脿il an-diugh, eadar coltas, blas is f脿ileadh. Mi-ch脿ilear am barail feadhainn, fi霉's sgreamhail - ach chan e sin beachd Fraoch, cha chuir an taobh is gr脿ineile de dheasachadh b矛dhe ise s矛os no suas. Tha i ag aideachadh gu bheil corra bhiadh an seo ris an cuireadh i c霉l - ach tha se貌rsaichean eile a'c貌rdadh rithe agus tha i gan ithe tric.
From ceann-cropaig to limpet stovies, The Scots Kitchen, by F Marian McNeill, is a recipe book like no other. Islay-born cook Heather Dewar explores the pages of her favourite cookery book. Through McNeill's fascinating account of not only how we ate but of how we lived, Heather looks at the world of Scottish cuisine.
Heather not only delves into the history and legend associated with the recipes in McNeill's book, she also makes a number of them in her kitchen. Many of the dishes may offend our modern-day sensibilities of what food should look, taste and smell like.
To some they might seem bizarre, even gruesome - but not so to Heather who can more than stomach the grisly side of food preparation! While she admits that some recipes might be best consigned to history, there are many she makes with great regularity.
