Absolutely JBR. I love fudge as well but this Scottish Tablet is just perfect!
Thank you! I love experimenting! I’ll try this Scottish Black Bun!
Ooh yes please.
You won’t find many people on the entire continent eating those things @Minx , so enjoy making and eating them and amaze your friends and family with something they will never have had before.
When you tell people that Scottish macaroon has potato in it for example it usualy surprises them.
Off topic, I know, but one day I’d like to try a deep-fried Mars bar.
I’ve never seen one, to be honest, but that just makes me more inquisitive.
Can’t wait to try it out
Yes! That will be a conversation starter!
I’ve only ever made Scotch Crumpets and Scotch Eggs!
It’s interesting to learn about all your other traditional recipes/food.
That sounds interesting! I’ll have to Google it
Scotland isn’t just about haggis you see and despite what I’m going to post next, it isn’t all about sweet things either although we Scots do have a sweet tooth.
I’m not going to disrupt your thread any further by keep suggesting naughty recipes for you, but I had to give you one of my sister’s all-time favourites and it’s an easy but delicious dessert IMHO:
Oh my word! Classic cranachan would make a lovely Christmas dinner dessert!
So many new recipes to try out! Yay! I’m in heaven!
Oh yes, it’s a beaut.
I thought that you might like to know that when you cross the border from England into Scotland, you can buy tablet usually in little 100g/4oz bags made by lots of small makers from the petrol stations and little shops all over Scotland.
Even the bigger supermarkets once you’re in Scotland nearly all sell tablet in bags or/and boxes.
That’s an interesting fact! I’ll definitely exclude the vanilla next time so it’s truly authentic. Thank you for the tip!
It’s been a wonderful afternoon and I’ve come away with more recipes to try!
100% well done have to agree about missing out on vanilla but for a virgin tablet maker thats fantastic dont know about anyone else but I think tablet and fudge are totally different things
What was bottom of pot like ??? no burn marks
As with most things people come up with easier ways of making things and I now make tablet in microwave
however well done I’m very impressed and guessing mines in the post
The bottom of the pot before I wash up - I just rinsed it with water though
Definitely no Vanilla extract in future! That was fun
fantastic and mine is ???
Are you eating your hat then?
Thanks for your kind words
Express delivery on the way
Nope, I’m going to make up some bags and hand them out on my afternoon walk actually. It’s way too much!
I honestly feel flattered as most people say something yet have no intention of doing it next up lobster thermidor
I’m not most people
Ok, you catch the lobster and I’ll do the Thermidor
believe it or not I actually got another today …Where’s my bicycle
