WitchHazel Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 We make our own sausages, and when we get the belly pork we try to get it on the bone and with rind. This means that we can have a "free" meal of spare ribs, and also some loverly crackling. I used to hate pork scratchings, until I tried some proper hand made ones at the Real Food Festival a while ago. They were lovely, in a really sado masochistic way. Today we decided to make scratchings instead of crackling. The recipe said eat hot or cold. Gnom Gnom Gnom Gnom. Won't be any left to go cold.

WitchHazel Posted January 13, 2011 Author Share Posted January 13, 2011 Very easy to make. I used a Market Kitchen recipe...let me just find it.... here it is http://uktv.co.uk/food/recipe/aid/613853 We used our deep fat fryer to do the final frying. We haven't used it since we bought an Actifry...I'd forgotten how horrible the smell is when one deep fries. I might try doing in a pan next time.
