General/Other Cooking

John Barlow, a self-confessed glutton, finds himself in a meat-lover's dream in northern Spain. In Galicia, the misty-green north-west corner of Spain, the people revere and consume every part of the pig. Over the course of one glorious, bilious year, Barlow tries the patience of his vegetarian wife as he goes the whole hog and vows to eat everything but the squeal, from cocido in a cantina to a chorizo feast at Carnival, from ribs to roast ham, all washed down with local wine - delicious! '...it made me laugh so hard I didn't think I'd make it to the second chapter.' - Jenny Maidment Cuisine Magazine
