How a Haggis is Made.

A Scotch haggis is made of the
lights, liver and heart of a sheep,
which is all called pluck. They
come attached to the wind pipe. Put
it all on to boil. say for an hour and
half. 1t is we'll to let the windpipe
end hang oyer the pot, 80 that any
impurities may pass out. When
done remove from the fire and allow
the pluck to cool, Then cut away
the wind pipe, bits of skin or grist'e,
and all but a quarter of the liver.
Then add half pound of beef suet
and chop the whole very fine. Now
add two small cupfuls of oatmeal
which has been previously dried in
the oven, pepper, salt and about hail
pint of the liquor in which the
pluck was boiled Now it is ready
for the bag, which must have been
procured from the market the day be-
fore; it is the large stomach of
sheep and must be fresh. AS soor
as possible wash it well, Grst in colo
water, then plunge it into boiling
water, and scrape carefully; then II
should be allowed to soak all night
in pan of salt and water.
When the mince is ready wash the
bag with cold clean water, and only
little more than half fill it with the
mince, for room must be left for the
meal and meat to expand; if filed
the bag would burst Now sew the
bag up securely and put it into POI
of boiling water, pricking it occasion
ally, as it swells. to allow the air te
escape. If the skin appears very
thin, tie pudding cloth around it
boil for three hours; serve hot, with
out gravy or garnish of any kind, al
it is sufficiently rich of itself.
