The soup originates from the town of Cullen in Moray, on the Scottish northeastern coast. Traditionally, the word "Skink" is used to describe a broth made with beef scrapings. In the 1890s, these scraps of beef became hard to come by. However, at this time, Cullen’s harbour was a thriving fishing port. So the people of the town decided to use smoked haddock in their soup. From this, the Cullen Skink we all love today was created.
