John Mactaggart, writing in 1824, described a Galloway dish that could not be beaten.
CHAMPED POTATOES – Mashed potatoes in milk and butter; one of the very best of dishes. I defy the most skillful French cook that ever lived, to make a dish of a more delicious nature; and no confectioner's shop in the kingdom has anything to compare with them: they are truly glorious belly trimmer.
