Topic: Collops


In the News (Fri 17 Feb 12)

  
  Word of the Day - yourDictionary.com
Or, should your mum ask your pleasure at the dinner table, impress her with, "I would love maybe three collops of the roastbeef."
The original meaning was "eggs fried on bacon," and Shrove Monday was called "Collop Monday" in some areas because eggs and bacon are eaten on that day.
Collops as a name for bacon may be related to the Irish use of the word: "the number of animals that an acre of Irish land can support" (one horse, one cow, or six sheep).

Remove the collops as they are finished and arrange on the bottom of a baking pan or large casserole.
Heat the oil in a nonstick pan and sear the balls over medium-low heat for about 6 minutes or until firm and golden brown all around (if they brown too quickly, reduce the heat, cover the pan, and continue cooking).

 Minced Collops - an authentic Civil War recipe
There is nothing dishonorable about one cookbook author using material from another (particularly if the other is so old as to be presumably dead) but it is pleasant to see the earlier source given credit.
The use of the term "collop" for a small circular piece of meat is evidently peculiar to Scotland and the far north of England.
The origin of this word rather obscure, except for hints that it may be related to Swedish kalops "beef stew" and German Klops "meatball".

 collop - alphaDictionary * Free English On-line Dictionary
In the overweight world we currently live in, the word is too relevant to let slip away—or leave it to the Scots to have all the fun with.
We don't like to think of collops on ourselves, but they do sometimes appear: "Barb Dwyer is a lovely woman except the for collops under her chin." Pigs are a natural place to find the collops whether in the sty or on the table.
In fact, a pig might be described as the larval stage of a football with dollops of collops all over it.

A laboratory investigation was conducted to quantify the foraging behavior of the adults of five common whitefly predators presented with a surfeit of whitefly eggs, nymphs, and adults.
The beetles, Hippodamia convergens Guérin-Méneville and Collops vittatus (Say) fed mostly on whitefly eggs, but readily and rapidly preyed on all of the whitefly lifestages.
These predators were selected for this study because assays of predator gut content by ELISA have shown that they readily prey on whitefly (Hagler and Naranjo 1994a,b).

With regard to the body we find it used in Job 41:23 in the description of leviathan (the crocodile): "The flakes of his flesh are joined together: they are firm upon him; they cannot be moved." Baethgen in Kautzsch's translation of the Old Testament translates "Wampen," i.e.
the collops or lateral folds of flesh and armored skin.
A better translation would perhaps be: "the horny epidermic scales" of the body, differentiated from the bony dermal scutes of the back (Hebrew "channels of shields," "courses of scales"), which are mentioned in Job 41:15 margin.
