      Yield: 4 Servings
 
    1/2 l  Pig's blood (2 cups plus 2
           -Tbsp)
      1 kg Fatty meat from pork head,
           -snout, shoulder,
           Tongue, heart, and skin (a
           -generous 2 lbs)
      1    Onion
           Salt and pepper to taste

      3 tb Marjoram

  Boil the pork skin [and other meat] with the onion and bay leaves.
  Grind up half of the cooked skin, and finely cube the other half.
  Also cube the other meat. Combine the skin, meat, blood, and

  [*Note: 1 pkg is a considerably smaller quantity than the smallest
  spice container I have ever seen stateside. And that, alas, is as
  specific as I can get on the subject. K.B.]
  
  [**Note:  I strongly recommend that anyone contemplating this recipe
  consult a book on how to prepare intestines for use as sausage
  casings. K.B.]
