There are always loads of recipes I'd like to try but lose them before I do. This is where I can record recipes I find interesting and keep notes on my experiments with them.

I have a system that I've adopted for working through recipes:

1 - New recipes are saved to the Experimental Mouffette and is labeled : Untested
2 - As I'm working out the changes I'd like to make (if any) it is labeled : Testing
3 - Once I think I've got the correct formula it is labeled : Test 1
4 - IF I am able to reproduce the effect a second time it is labeled : Test 2 - if I am not able to reproduce the effect, it remains Test 1
5 - The same process as step 4 is used to graduate it to Test 3
6 - Once I have been able to reproduce the effect successfully 3 times, it graduates to my main blog, La Mouffette Gourmande

Der gefuellte schweinebauch (stuffed pork belly)

4 Servings

1kg pork belly (raw, not too fatty) ( a generous 2 lbs)
Salt and pepper to taste
1 rutabaga
1 onion
5 cloves garlic
Stuffing:
100g plain breadcrumbs (3 1/2 oz)
1 bunch parsley
100g smoked ham, diced (3 1/2 oz)
100g ground pork (3 1/2 oz)
1 pinch sugar
1 Tbsp marjoram
1 onion, finely chopped, and sauteed till transparent
Salt and pepper to taste
  1. Cut a pocket into the pork belly, and lightly season the inside.
  2. Combine the stuffing ingredients and mix well. Stuff the pork belly with this mixture, then sew the opening shut with cooking twine.
  3. Score the fatty rind with a knife. Rub the pork belly all around with seasonings. Roast (what? In the oven? What temp???) along with the sliced turnip, until crispy.
  4. The meat will have to be turned and basted several times.
