ChatGPT

  1. scotch woodcock

    Scotch Woodcock is a classic British dish made from creamy, lightly scrambled eggs served on toast, that has been spread with anchovy paste or Gentleman's Relish. It is often garnished with a whole anchovy filet on top. Despite the name, the dish doesn't contain any poultry. The "woodcock" refers to the anchovy garnish, which gives a similar savory flavor as the game bird would.
