I tried making it for the first time tonight, following instructions from "The Scots Kitchen" - lovely taste but a bit crunchy. I was expecting something like a (Scottish) white pudding, which was my favourite food as a child & I still crave on occasions! I'm not sure I got it right with the oats - any tips? I used Coarse Oatmeal.
Ta!!
Skirlie should have a certain crunch to it, either that or my family have been botching the recipie for years. (Which is entirely possible!) :D
If you want something with a texture more akin to white pudding then pinhead oatmeal, probably pre-soaked, might be a better bet.
