How hard boiled is the egg at that point? Wouldn't it just gush out, OR do
you just wrap very carfully & gingerly?>>
Hmm. When I made them, I worked with totally hard cooked eggs. In fact, we
bought them hard cooked.

Just enough to cover it, as I recall.
<< 3 Is another name for Scotch Eggs: "hedgehogs"? >>
Nope. Hedgehogs are a pork meatball with ginger, made with slivered almond
"spines" sticking out all over. OK, in proper period fashion, it's a pig's
stomach stuffed with the pork and ginger mixture, then has spines stuck
through the stomach. But I've never actually made one or had one served that
way. No eggs in hedgehogs, hardcooked or otherwise.
