Roast Little Pig
Ingredients
Directions
Clean the pig thoroughly after the butcher prepares it.
Use a soft cloth-covered skewer to clean the ears, nostrils, and vent.
Scrape the tongue, lips, and gums with a sharp knife, then wipe them clean.
Remove the eyes and wash the pig with cold water.
Dry the pig and rub 1 tablespoon of coarse sea salt inside.
