  • About

Before you dish it up, cut off its head and part that and the body down the middle; chop the brains very fine with some boiled sage leaves, and mix them with good veal or beef gravy or what runs from the pig when you cut its head off. Send up also a tureenful of gravy.

Currant sauce is still a favourite with some.

Lay the pig back to back in the dish, with one half of the head on each side, and the ears, one at each end, which you must take care to make nice and crisp, or you will be scolded, as the good man was, who bought his wife a pig with only one ear.
