Scotch Beef
Scottish beef production is centred on the specialist beef breeds, such as Aberdeen Angus, Galloway, Charolais and Limousin. This and the unique environment in which their cattle are raised contributes to a product many connoisseurs and top chefs believe is the best in the world.
Many families enjoyed goose for their Christmas Day meal – some for
the first time. Goose was once the traditional festive dish and it
is now regaining more popularity each year.
Geese are still produced in the old-fashioned way, reared on grass. Some, like these at Croxton Kerrial, are driven through the village street in a time-honoured way to pasture each morning.
Nature dictates that mother goose starts laying eggs in the spring and goslings are only available from then until late summer. That’s why fresh geese can only be obtained from Michaelmas in late September through,to Christmas.
But have you ever tried goose eggs for cooking? Or used goose fat to roast vegetables? Or do you sleep under a duvet filled with goose feathers? We should be thankful for all that Mother Goose brings us.
