Read our privacy policy Regional dishes are not as popular as once thought – with 43 per cent of Scots having never tried haggis and a quarter of South Westerners shunning Cornish pasties. As 40 per cent of people in Wales admit they’ve never tucked into Welsh rarebit, and one quarter of these have ‘no idea’ what goes into the dish. It also emerged that 38 per cent haven’t made their local dish at home – despite half insisting guests tuck into them when visiting from out of town. In a bid to help keep local delicacies alive, Sykes Holiday Cottages has released a free online recipe book of regional foodie favourites from throughout the UK and Ireland.
