Hi to you too,BTW..

 

Horse meat and cotechino.

 

|Sounds very continental to me..what is it?

 

Capney a horse is an animal with a leg in each corner ..lol :p

 

Ok.... so how many legs has a Cotechino ?

 

Googled it :
"Cotechino di Modena Igp

Cotechino di Modena The first news of its existence goes back to 1500, more just to 1511 to Aiming it. When the city came encircled of besieges from the military services of Pope Giulio II its inhabitants, having to find a way in order to conserve the pig meat, they began to insaccarlo in the cotenna giving origin to the cotechino. It is diffused in 1700. The first transformation of the botteghe of salumiere in semiindustrial structures, gave the way to the spread of the cotechino and the happened one on wide scale arrived already in 1800. The “Cotechino Modena” e' constituted from a mixture of meats suine obtained from the streaked musculature, fat suino, cotenna, knows them, entire pepper and/or to pieces"

Ribs and cabbage like my Nanna used to make.

Vesta beef curry tasted gorgeous.

 

Dirt, I ate a lot as a kid.

These days its mainly MDF dust.:D

We really have progressed.

 

You guys just crack me up. A cotechino is all the above (the very last scraps of pork that do not qualify for anything else, ground to a past and stuffed into pork guts, or skin, I don´t know, either way it´s horrid), but mainly it is a boiled mass of disgusting jellied fat, tasting of pepper and rotten something that for some reason my region compatriots find delicious. I did eat and enjoy it as a child, but now yuuuuckkkk!!!!

 

My mum wasa fantastic cook{pity she never passed her skills down to me}and I do miss her Apple and Blackberry Pies and Apple Pies with lashings of hot custard,Pip Pudding,Corned Beef and Potato Pie,Custard Tart made with a sweet pastry base then topped with thick custard and cooked in the oven until the custard had a nice brown cooked skin on top...yummy:p

PS you can all keep your horrible sheep and pigs bits...Yuk:eek::D

 

All the things i like i tend to eat ..... the joys of comparetive youth and an active job!!!
