It's a ham and is cured in a brine.
We used to have them a lot when I was growing up. You put the cottage roll in a pot of water, along with potatoes, carrots, onions, cabbage, etc. and let it simmer for hours. It's very tasty!
I hadn't made one in a while so today was the day! Since I've become a recent fan of the crockpot, I made it in there. I'm not a fan of cabbage so left it out.
Just before it's time to serve it, I put it in the oven for a bit with a brown sugar/mustard glaze.
Sounds really yummy! I've never heard of this before and never knoeingly tasted this kind of Ham....!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE The Crockpot! It is truly one of the great GREAT inventions of the 20th Century!!!
Oooo looks really yummy!
ReplyDeleteIt was delicious and I must say, better than my Mom used to make and Mom used to do a great job with a cottage roll.

Wouldn't that be called a traditional Newfoundland dinner. Do tell are you part Newfie? Must confess to having had many of those dinners growing up. So good on a cold night.
ReplyDeleteteresa: We used to call it a "boiled dinner" when I was growing up in Nova Scotia.
