[Sca-cooks] Scottish Food Help - Thanks for your help!

[Johnna Holloway]

I love the mom's reply. The daughter sounds like a sensible sort.
Let's hope the teacher thinks oatcakes are ok and that haggis wasn't
needed.
I think F. Marion McNeill's The Scots Kitchen is still worth getting. 
It's back
in print. Also any of Catharine Brown's books which can be interlibrary 
loaned:
Broths to Bannocks. Cooking in Scotland: 1690 to the Present Day,

A Year in a Scots Kitchen, Scottish Regional Recipes,
and Scottish Cookery.
Brown also served as a co-author on the massive encyclopedic volume
Traditional Foods of Britain. An Inventory which describes hundreds of
British regional dishes and products.
Her newest Classic Scots Cookery is due out here sometime soon.

Olive M. Geddes released The Laird’s Kitchen in 1994. It's also very good.

My article incuding sources for foods in Scotland along with the menu 
for the
Midrealm Coronation Luncheon is currently up at:
http://home.earthlink.net/~mkcooks/Coro%20Luncheon%20Prepared%20for.htm

I am still behind on mail, or I would have hotten to this sooner.
