HAGGIS (Dutch)

 

On this page you will find two video links - in Dutch - taken from DeRedactie.be, the news site of the Flemish public broadcasting organization, VRT.
It appeared in the 7 o'clock news of Tuesday 4th August 2009.

It involves this story I could read on the same day on BBC News:

 

1. Schotse historica start Haggis-rel

2. "Haggis Engels? Dat is een hoop onzin"

 
What is haggis?
Haggis is a dish containing sheep's heart, liver and lungs, minced with onion, oatmeal, spices, and salt, mixed with stock, and traditionally boiled in the animal's stomach for approximately three hours.
The haggis is a traditional Scottish dish.
Haggis is traditionally served with the Burns supper on the week of January 25, when Scotland's national poet, Robert Burns, is commemorated.
Scotch whisky is often said to be the traditional accompaniment for haggis, though this may simply be because both are traditionally served at a Burns supper.
