i'm not adverse to trying strange foods just the opportunity hasn't presented itself

There was a small shop in Hereford that used to sell all sorts of weird foodstuffs, my favourite was honeyed crickets, but tried ants and some others too!

The owner also gave me some bits of meat to try, but wouldnt tell me what they were as she didnt want me "throwing up in her shop"..... so they must have been pretty disgusting!

my gran and grandad loved them ...

4 oz/110g pork shoulder, roughly chopped

4 oz/ 110g pig's iiver, roughly chopped

8 oz/250g fatty belly pork, roughly choppped

4 oz/110g bacon scraps

4 oz/ 110g bread crumbs

1 medium onion, finely chopped

1/2 tsp mace

1 tsp allspice

2 tbsp chopped parsley

2 sage leaves, finely chopped

1 small red chili, deseeded and finely chopped

Salt and Pepper

Caul fat*** or streaky bacon

Mince all the roughly chopped meats, if you don't have a mincer, then chop in a food processor.

Place the minced meat into a large bowl. Add the breadcrumbs, onion, herbs, spices and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly.

Divide the mixture into 8 and shape into balls.

Wrap each ball in caul or streaky bacon. Make sure the caul or bacon overlaps as it will seal as it cooks and hold the faggots together.

Place the faggots onto a baking sheet and bake in the hot oven for 50 - 60 minutes ... xx we like them ..Faggots are traditionally eaten with mushy peas, mashed potatoes and onion gravy.

Holland !

Once in a Nordic food tent at the Roskilde festival in Denmark I made the mistake of asking some lass what she was eating.

"Try it" she said with hand signal language ?

So I did.

After about 20 minutes of more hand signal communication, I still never found out what it was.

Except that it wasn't seal, whale or walrus.

Faggots are an old-fashioned British food, and one that has sadly fallen out of favor in recent years. Traditionally Faggots are made from offal, usually pork, and from the bits of the animal that are generally discarded; the heart, the liver etc making Faggots a cheap and nutritious dish, as in this faggot recipe.

Birmingham and the Midlands are considered the home of Faggots in Britain,

I make them like this and my family say dont like liver thay do i dont tell them , lol just found this easy to make ..
