  1. Procure six pigs’ feet nicely salted, which boil in water, to which you have added a few vegetables, until well done.
  2. Cut each one in halves, take out the long bone.
  3. Have some sausage-meat as in the last, and a pig’s caul, which cut into pieces each large enough to fold half a foot, well surrounded with sausage-meat, when well wrapped up broil slowly half an hour over a moderate fire, and serve.
Alternative preparation
  1. When the pig’s feet are well boiled, egg over, and throw them into some grated crust of bread, with which you have mixed a little parsley, broil a nice color and serve with a little plain gravy.
  2. This is called à la Ste. Menéhould.
