Duck scotch eggs
We are now getting two eggs a day from our ducks. So far, I’ve made a couple of sponge cakes and 6 scotch eggs with them. Today I poached one. The scotch egg recipe is no different to the one I use when making them using hen eggs. I have to confess that the sausage meat we used did not come from our Tamworth pig. One of the reasons for making the scotch eggs was to use up some sausage meat we have bought some time ago and put in the freezer. We wanted it used up before we start making inroads into the significant quantity of Tamworth sausage meat now in our freezer.
Until 2009 I was working in London, UK, but I gave it up to pursue a life of self-sufficiency. My aim is to grow or forage for all my food, produce my own power and live a healthier and greener lifestyle. I left London to return to my home village of Sunniside, near Newcastle, in the North East of England. I have a couple of plots of land there as well as the garden of my house. Our village is a commuter area for Newcastle but we are surrounded by countryside which we use for picking wild foods. My mission in life is to show that it is possible to live well without destroying the planet in the process. I am also keen to ensure knowledge of historic recipes and cooking is kept alive. I regularly try out recipes from old cookbooks using the food we have grown. I make videos about our progress and about how to cook home-grown foods.
