Modern RedactionIngredients:
60g bone marrow Method:Make the pastry according to the standard pie-crust recipe. Then mix the marrow, sugar, cinnamon and ginger to make a smooth paste. Add sugar to taste. Roll the pastry on a floured board until it becomes very thin (but not unmanageable). Using a cutter cut the pastry into as many 7cm diameter circles as you can. Spread a thin layer of marrow mixture across the centre of each round then wet your finger and trace it around the edge of each circle. Fold these in half and seal the edges. Once you have a pile of these half-circles heat up your lard in a frying pan and brown the pescoddes on each side. Arrange on a plate, sprinkle with cinnamon and ginger then serve. Allow the cheesecake to cool for an hour and serve. |
