Have you heard about Haggis? Haggis is traditional Scotland meal, which is consider as their national dish. It uses ox liver as the main ingredient, some recipe that I found on the internet also add ox tongue and lungs.
David and I tasted haggis for the first time a few months ago. I quite surprised, because not only we could tolerate its taste, but we actually love it - we normally hate the taste of liver.
Last Saturday, David organised some time to learn how to make Haggis with Jo, who is originally from Scotland. Although, she has already been in New Zealand for 52 years, she still hold her Scottish tradition tightly to her heart.

Jo was very kind, she not only shared her recipe with us, she also showed us how to make it and prepared all the ingredient. So I think I also will share it with you, so you can try to make it.
