Now *this* is totally weird! I clicked through on your recipe from Tastespotting and then saw your giveaway, and, I see this Ed Baines giveaway. I’m *also* having an Ed Baines giveaway (his Entertaining edition) and my drawing is on May 18. We must be kindred spirits on some foodie level!
Mutton Ham – its an old stuff preseved ham from mutton, ie older than lamb sheep. Mutton isn’t very popular these days and people are missing a real treat. I discovered this recipe in an old cookery book and I make it as often as I can get a leg of Mutton !
Ingredients for Mutton Ham
leg of mutton
brown sugar 150 gm
ground ginger 1 tbs
ground mace 1tbs
ground pepper 1tbs
ground cloves 1tbs
fine sea salt 150 gm
Combine spices and sugar
rub into the leg of mutton in a deep trav
Stand for about 2 hours then rub in the salt, cover and put in a cool dark place, I use my porch but a cellar is cood, fridge is too cool, you are looking for about 6 C or lower
keep rubbing in the cure twice a day, if liquidfied spoon and rub. Do this for 6 days
back in
Soak for a couple of hours. put in water with herbs, bay, rosemary, thyme, some honey and ground pepper, simmer till tender
Cottage pie, as I’m not a fan of lamb.
Ooh – there are so many!
Haggis, neeps and tatties, or maybe roast lamb, and rhubarb fool.
My absolute favorite has to be….. Cottage Pie…. an exceptional British comfort food!
