"Guardian" Arbroath Smokies photo essay
The Guardian has a lovely little 7-shot picture essay by photographer Murdo MacLeod of Iain R. Spink making his Arbroath Smokies, a traditional smoked haddock.
The Arbroath Smokie is now officially a protected 'Geographical Indication', much like champagne or Roquefort cheese, and must be manufactured within 8 km of Arbroath, a small town northeast of Dundee, Scotland.
