Britain’s fishing industry has been making waves in the news of late – for all the wrong reasons. The furore over French fishing vessels in Jersey s waters and the recent failure to secure a fishing deal with Norway are just the tip of an iceberg of problems that have beleaguered the sector, which was in decline even before the creation of non-tariff trade barriers with our biggest export market resulted in a drop in exports of food and live animals (including fish) to the tune of £700 million earlier this year.

A few years ago, as I sat overlooking the harbour in Sydney – I was living there and working at Time Out – an Italian chef, upon clocking my Glaswegian accent, looked at me and said, ‘Scotland? Great produce! But you don’t know what to do with it.’ This, I realised, feeling suddenly pale in the Australian sun, is the global reputation of Scottish cooking. Sure, our produce is world-renowned – salmon, shellfish, whisky – but there is little faith that we, as Scots, know what to do with our own bounty.

It is, of course, nonsense. The people have known how to cook with their country’s wares for millennia – culinary craft has been honed throughout historic invasions, waves of immigration and the spice laden kists of imperialism – but somehow so-called Scottish cuisine has left us with haggis and tatties, deep-fried fish (we don’t talk about the other deep-fried thing) and chicken Balmoral.

NOEL KING, HOST:
Scots will vote today in regional elections that could determine the near future of that country. If the pro-independence parties win a majority, they re going to push for a referendum on whether Scotland should leave the United Kingdom. Here s NPR s Frank Langfitt in Edinburgh.
FRANK LANGFITT, BYLINE: When Scotland held its first independence referendum in 2014, 55% of voters opposed it. One was a Scottish American student named Emma Hodcroft. She d spent the election day here in the city s old town, urging people to vote to stay in the United Kingdom. Here s her exchange with NPR s Ari Shapiro, who covered the referendum back then.
