yarb commented on the word scotch egg
A gas-inducing foodstuff consisting of a cold boiled egg encased in sausage-meat and breadcrumbs and deep-fried. Delicious if prepared with love and care.

I'm trying to imagine what the process of the encasement looks like. do you slap thin slices of salami all around? do you fork out the gooey stuffing from a raw sausage and paste it on?

I think the second approach. It's loose sausage-meat that's formed around the peeled boiled egg (as you might make a sausage-meatball), then breaded, etc.

That roasted monster is going to visit me tonight...mark my words. Why would you want to eat an animal which looks no different than it did while it was still breathing? My whole dinner would be plagued by the fear that my meal would crawl off of the table.
