The inside fat or leaf of a pig should be beaten with a lard-beater, or rolling-pin ; then put it into a jar or earthen pot, in a large kettle of boiling water, till it is melted ; add a little salt and a little rosemary the last may be left out if not preferred. When melted, pour it into jars or bladders, nicely cleaned. The bits of skins that are left are called crittens, and chopped up with apples or currants to make fritters, or a pie.
