I just think this entire thread is cruel.

I've dropped from 253 to 224 in the past 32 days, and I intend to get to 185...



...and pictures of Scotch Eggs are NOT helping.

The sage sausage is decent but the best eggs are made with SPICY saudage oh yes . HHmm, I wonder how well good chorizo would work?

I would LOVE the spicy sausage much more. I will try it some time. The reason I didn't is my wife can not eat anything with ANY heat what-so-ever, due to medical reasons (I'll leave it at that.) So, I have to be very careful when shopping. It's become second nature I guess. I immediately overlook things that say "spicy" on the label. Do you think the chorzio would wrap well around the eggs? Maybe mixing the chorizo into the sausage would be a better idea? You're the chef!

[Rob Wright]

Now that I've thought about it chorizo is a bit "mealy", you'll probably have to mix it into regular sausage to get it to wrap around the eggs. That will also allow you to control the spice, chorizo can overpower easily.

I made a delicious batch of vegetarian Scotch Eggs.

Had the boiled egg, dressed it up in a coat of Gimme-Lean veggie sausage, rolled that in a little flour, dipped it in egg, and rolled it in savory bread crumbs. Dunked them in my giant wok full of peanut oil and fried em for a wee bit.

All things considered, relatively healthy as long as it is kept as the occasional treat.

This stuff is actually pretty tasty and it is good for you! If you use peanut oil or a heart healthy oil at the right temp, the steam from the food as it cooks will actually keep the grease out as it cooks, but only if the oil is the right temp. Instead of greasy, it will be light and fluffy.

Edit. I should mention I have thought about free form cooking Scotch Eggs made from pickled eggs. Really need to try that some time. Just to see what happens.
