A traditional British dish made from seasoned minced offal (organ meats like liver and heart), formed into a loaf or patty and baked.
From Old French 'harslet' or possibly from Germanic roots meaning 'spicy meat.' The word came to English through Norman French and refers to a medieval and traditional working-class meat preparation that remains popular in British cuisine.
Harslets are a living piece of culinary history—they were the original 'use everything' zero-waste dish that poor people made with animal parts that wealthier folks wouldn't eat, and they're still loved in Britain today!
