Recipe: A delicious Cullen Skink soup
This delicious Cullen Skink soup from the Old Manor Hotel in Lundin Links is one of the most popular dishes on the menu.
Originating in Cullen, a harbour town on the north coast of Aberdeenshire, the soup was made from scrapings of beef. However, in the 1890s, as beef became expensive, and the town specialised in smoked haddock, locals began making their own version.
Along with a new menu, The Old Manor has renamed its lounge The 1864 Lounge in recognition of the year the building was first built as a home for a pair of local spinster sisters, the Misses Rigg.
