Suckling Pig(Prosie Pieczone)

Instructions

1. Clean pig and wash well inside and out with clear water.
2. Rub well with salt. Sprinkle with white pepper inside and out. Stuff the cavity with dressing and sew up with linen thread or white cord.
3. Cover ears and tail with pieces of well-greased paper. Place in roaster.
4. Brush with a little fat and roast at 375° for 2 1/2 hours, basting every 15 minutes. Pig's mouth should be open and a potato inserted.
5. After roasting, remove the potato and place an apple in the mouth.
6. If you want the skin of the pig to be soft, baste with hot stock; if you want it to be crusty, baste with oil or melted butter. Remove hot pig to hot platter and garnish with parsley or watercress.
