To Dry Pigs' Cheeks =================== Ingredients ----------- Salt, 4 oz. of saltpetre, 2 oz. of bay-salt, 4 oz. of coarse sugar. Method ------ Cut out the snout, remove the brains, and split the head, taking off the upper bone to make the jowl a good shape; rub it well with salt; next day take away the brine, and salt it again the following day; cover the head with saltpetre, bay-salt, and coarse sugar, in the above proportion, adding a little common salt. Let the head be often turned, and when it has been in the pickle for 10 days, smoke it for a week or rather longer.
