ChatGPT
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.
Wikidata
Scotch woodcock
Scotch woodcock is a savoury consisting of creamy, softly scrambled eggs served over toast that has been spread with anchovy paste or Gentleman's Relish. As Welsh rabbit contains no rabbit, so Scotch woodcock contains no woodcock. Scotch woodcock was served in the refreshment rooms of the House of Commons of the United Kingdom as late as 1949. It was also served historically at the colleges of the University of Cambridge and University of Oxford. It was a well known dish in the Victorian era, and is mentioned in Mrs Beeton's Book of Household Management
