JohnD, if I am not mistaken, I bought these at Rustan’s Rockwell. If they aren’t on display, check with the butcher if they have them in the chillers.

Wow! This is like a bruschetta gone crazy! Looks awesome, though. I have a copy of the book and it has many inspiring stories and recipes from the world’s greatest chefs.

First salt the skin with Gris salt. Over night. Rinse. Then slow cook submerged in duck fat in oven for hours, up to 3 depending on your oven, low heat. Then remove from fat, pat dry, rest and then deep fry. (You really cant go wrong, it turns out like perfect PIG butter puff pastry). We served this tossed in a salad of bitter greens and a verjuice and evo dressing. Season well of course.

Cooking a pig with Fergus, head to toe, was beyond a dream. If you don’t have his book, get it. Your in pig heaven and his approach to head to toe eating is witty, smart, simple, old school and just F*** off good.

Goodness Marketman, I read this post right after I got my own blood test results with over-all cholesterol at 161 (used to be 180) so I think I can also indulge in this. IMO, if you eat healthy food most of the time, a few binge here and there will not affect your cholesterol, even your weight. I have proven this to be true when I tried out buttery cake recipes 3x/week and my cholesterol shot up from 120 to 180 whereas in the past, when I would binge on a rich dessert and would wait sometime before doing it again, it did not affect my cholesterol level nor my weight. It also helps to stay longer in the gym (I have read somewhere that you can burn it with exercise) and eat oatmeal for breakfast everyday which is what I do, and trust me, it works.

This is indeed a sublime dish! I love roasted bone marrow (Je Suis Gourmand has a great one as well)! You are right, it’s dead cheap and easy to make so I will be indulging soon :) As for the health benefits…does “putting oneself in a good mood” count for a health benefit? ;)
