Pigs Head Braising
In a large pan place the pigs head and cover with water. Bring the pan to the boil. Pass off and refresh with cold water. Repeat the process twice more, then cover with water and the pigs head braising ingredients.
Bring to the boil and cover with tin foil. Place the pan in an oven at 130 degree c for 6 – 8 hours until it’s cooked.
Remove the head from the liquor and flake all the meat and skin, tongue and brain and mash it all together with your hands and season, Add the English mustard and mix. Press in a tray lined with clingfilm for 12 hours. Remove from the tray and cut into 3cm cubes. Pané in panko breadcrumbs and leave to one side.
