An ancient custom of serving guests an offering of food with a portion removed.
The custom served dual purposes. Symbolically, it was meant to indicate that nothing would be offered which was not equal to the servers own.
Practically, it allowed for a taste test to gauge the quality of the ingredients and preparation.

Our host explained that the pie was missing a piece to show that the house tested the pie to confirm it was good enough for you, which is the Scottish promise.

Get the scottish wavemug. When one walks into a party already drunk and almost immediately proceeds to fall down a set of stairs. Though originally inspired by a redheaded Scottish carpenter this term may be applied to any companion who possesses both a habitual tendency to get a little rowdy and a distinct and comical clumsiness that often leads to the amusement of their friends.
2 friends walk into a party, followed by another friend.
*CRASH BANG CLANG*
(Without looking back, one friend turns to another)
“Fuck, that was {insert Scottish friends name here}, wasn’t it?”
“Yep. Making a Scottish entrance I suppose.”
