The Cooking of The Haggis
For a 2-3 lb. haggis
-
Keep haggis refrigerated until ready to begin cooking
-
Put enough water in a pot to cover the haggis by approximately 4 inches and bring the water to a boil
-
When the water is boiling, place the haggis in the water and reduce the heat to less than a simmer
-
CAUTION – DO NOT LET THE WATER BOIL AGAIN
-
Gently heat the haggis for approximately 1 hour. Haggis must be cooked until it reaches an internal temperature of 74°C(165°F) at the deepest section. Use of a probe thermometer is recommended. When ready, the haggis will float in the water.

Serve and enjoy one of Scotland’s gifts to the world!
Hint: To keep the haggis piping hot until you are ready to serve it, just leave it in the water (with the stove turned off)
Haggis Trays

Haggis must be cooked until it reaches an internal temperature of 74°C(165°F) at the deepest section. The haggis will take approximately 2 hours to heat.
