HOTELLEISTUNGEN
* From the 7th century A.D. there existed on Mount Blair, in Glenshee, a monastery run by an Order of Celtic Monks. The Monks were a particularly hardy breed, surviving all year, with the exception of the haggis feast at Christmas, on a staple diet of a cake consisting of rough corn, fruit and nuts. This cake was known as "schroidhnutchaidhoir". While the corn was being hand ground by mortar and pestle and the cakes were being baked, the monks always maintained periods of silence and chastity. The recipe for the cake was jealously guarded for hundreds of years, but was entrusted to the innkeeper at the Spittal of Glenshee in the early 16th century by the head Abbot who feared marauding English would steal it. And so the Scrocnut survives today - and to this day is still baked to the traditional recipe. Minus unfortunately the periods of silence and chastity!!!
