    In Ireland, smoked salmon is often served on buttered brown soda bread, how would you serve it here in Scotland? Oatcakes? Buttered?

    Made well, it's a delight:

    Love the scotch eggs!

    Wow you guys! Thanks for all the great suggestions. I work in a mental health center, so scotch will not work, but the salmon is a no brainer. I will have to peruse the recipes and select something. I love to cook, so making another selection would be fun.We have no kitchen, so on the spot cooking will be out, as well as due to time constraints. I'm liking the various soup/stew ideas. Could bring them in a crock-pot. Hmmmmmm.....

    We have no kitchen in our office, so I use a crock pot for the soup I bring in and it works very well.

    In this part of the highlands we serve a plate(large) full covered with smoked salmon, a twist of lemon, a wee tad of black pepper(not too much the Talisker is peppery enough) half a dozen smoked mussels, a couple of langoustines and a plate of freshly cut brown bread covered with real butter.

    Often for breakfast we have half a plate of smoked salmon, twist of lemon, black pepper and scrambled egg-----simply delicious! Around here we call it "woodcock on toast". Why? I have no idea!
