Recipe - To Bake A Pig - 1684

See directions

Take a good quantity of Clay, and having moulded it, stick your Pig, and
blood him well, and when he is warm, put him in your prepared Coffin of
Clay, thick every where, with his Hair, Skin, and all (his Entrails drawn,
and Belly sowed up again) then throw him into the Oven, or below the
Stockhole under the Furnace, and there let him soak, turn him now and then
when the clay is hardened for 12 hours, and he is then sufficiently baked,
then take him, and break off the Clay, which easily parts, and he will have
a fine crispy coat, and all the juice of the Pigg in your dish, remember
but to put a few leaves of Sage, and a little Salt in his belly, and you
need no other sauce.
