NOTES : Hough is the Scots word for beef shank. The use of variety meats
such as kidney is common in Scottish cooking, as, being a poor country,
nothing went to waste. In fact, variety meats are much higher in protein
and other nutritional substances than ordinary meat and therefore not only
tasty but also economical. Again, this is a dish of spartan simplicity, yet
the taste is rich and filling.
