About this product

Product Information

Every town in France has at least one charcutier, whose windows are dressed with astonishing displays of good food; pates, terrines, galantines, jambon, saucissions sec and boudins. The charcutier will also sell olives, anchovies, condiments as well as various salads of his own creation, making a visit the perfect stop to assemble picnics and impromptu meals. But the real skill of the charcutier lies in his transformation of the pig into an array of delicacies; a trade which goes back at least as far as classical Rome, when Gaul was famed for its hams. First published in 1969 but unavailable for many years, Jane Grigson's Charcuterie and French Pork Cookery is a guidebook and a recipe book. She describes every type of charcuterie available for purchase and how to make them yourself. She describes how to braise, roast, pot-roast and stew all the cuts of pork, how to make terrines, how to cure your own ham and make your own sausages.

Excellent recipes with accurate, detailed instructions.
This is the charcut...erie bible. I have owned one since it was first published, and learned how to cure pork products, and make pates rillettes, confits etc.. Bought this one for my son-in-law, who is impressed with my cookery and wants to have a go himself.

Brilliant pork cookery book
This is an excellent, classic cookery book which... anyone interested in the best ways to cook pork and to make pork products should own. The recipes for salting and preserving are particularly helpful, and a great deal better than many in more recent books, which suffer from using far more salt than is necessary, resulting in unpalatably salty outcomes. Grigson refers to the publication Home Curing of Bacon and Hams (Bulletin 127 from the Ministry of Agriculture, 1945). I found a copy on Ebay. It is also a very helpful (and historically interesting) document. The index and the cross-referencing could be better,but those are minor drawbacks.
