Where was the question printed please Tuvok? Someone may know if a correction has been published.
If the letters are right I can't see possible words other than leek, hake, death, diet, thin, kitten, and, and TAHINI.
If you try TAHINI that leaves HEED KIT. Can you see anything there?
I don't think the Atkin Diet is Scottish. But it's the closest anagram yet. (If two letters are missing it could be HOME MADE TAHINI KIT!)
Steak Diane is fairly close too
