HOW TO COOK PIG'S CHEEK. Let a pickled pig's cheek boil gently until tender. Tie one-half of a pint of split peas loosely in a cloth, put them in boiling water, and boil one hour; take them out, pass them through a hair sieve, and mix with the pulp a little pepper and salt, an ounce of butter, and four well-beaten eggs

Cook this with the app: pantry check, scaling, and the assistant.
