  1. Trim a griskin of pork and lard it closely.
  2. Put it in a deep dish with sliced onion and carrot, parsley, a gill of salad oil, some slices of peeled lemon, and a little mignonette pepper.
  3. Allow the griskin to steep in this for several hours, or a whole day if possible.
  4. When about to dress the griskin, twist it round, run a stout iron skewer through, and fasten it upon the spit tightly with string.
  5. Cover the larding with buttered paper, and roast it before the fire for about an hour.

  8. Garnish with a border of potatoes fried in clarified butter.
  9. Glaze the griskin, and serve.

When about to do dress the griskin, twist it round, run a stout iron skewer through, and fasten it upon the spit tightly with string; cover the larding with buttered paper, and roast it before the fire for about an hour, as soon as a kind of vapour arises, and it sputters towards the fire, it is time to take it up.
