Re: Scotch Eggs
I can remember as a child my father starting to cut a scotch egg in half only to stop, cut all the way round, take the egg out, break the shell off, put it all back together and all without saying a word. My mother later cited pressure of work.

Re: Scotch Eggs
I cut the scotch egg into quarters, eat a piece of the egg and then a piece of sausage meat with the Dijon mustard or pickle four times.

Re: Scotch Eggs
I don’t remember ever being served a hot Scotch Egg.
And the other question is do you peel off the sausage meat and eat that then the egg or just bite in and get a bit of both. I’m sort of in the first camp as I’ll take a bite of the egg before finishing the meat

Re: Scotch Eggs
Find it strange that majority prefer cold as being a cooked product you'd think it'd be better fresh and thus warm.

Re: Scotch Eggs
It’s one of those things that’s nice but obviously rank. Makes me feel awful but cold

Re: Scotch Eggs
It’s got to be hot, cut it in half and half again with a blob of brown sauce, job done.

Re: Scotch Eggs
A great on the go snack. Cold.
The M&S soft yolk posh ones are alright with a bit of salad leaves for a starter too. Warm.
Surprised Greggs haven’t rolled out a Veggie version yet, but Quorn do a box of mini picnic egg if your not keen on mashed pigs lips.
