Haslet

Haslet, also known as Acelet, (pronounced 'Hacelet', or azelet, though sometimes 'hazlet' in areas outside Lincolnshire) is a herbed pork meatloaf, originally from Lincolnshire in England. It is typically made of stale white bread, pork (traditionally the entrails), sage, salt and pepper, and sometimes onion. At least one butcher in Lincolnshire produces a gluten-free haslet.

In parts of the South, the inner organs of a pig, e.g. heart, kidney, liver, lungs, etc, are called haslet, or haslet hash.

Similar in taste to a traditional faggot. Ready-cooked, may look like a giant faggot but sliced cold. Traditionally served cold with pickles and salad. Can also serve as a sandwich filling.
