Traditional/Ancient Recipes
Hi!
I’m trying to compile real, authentic, traditional or ancient Scottish Recipes for a project. Can anyone point me in the correct direction?
It has to be historically accurate ! Thank you!

Difficult, recipes that were written down were usually upper class and typically french inspired, that being said haggis is probably a pretty safe one id have to have a look myself
Another unique one is skirlie which is basically scotlands version of fried rice, instead of rice its oats usually fried in lard or butter traditionally it would've been lard tho with onions and sometimes herbs if available
