You roast it in the oven, then take it out and brown it on both sides in butter on the stove and serve it with browned butter at the table.

My dear departed MIL was PA born and raised, so when I married her son, I got treated to all kinds of PA Dutch food. Most of it was delicious, and a real treat since I was born in raised in New England, and never experienced that type of cuisine before. Hog Maw - wow - I hadn't thought about that in years!!!

New Year's Eve - we're having whatever my husband dreams up! No clue...he's home and I'm at work, so it's his to make. I'll post after I find out, but I'm sure champagne is on the list!

New Year's Day - we'll be at a friend's for an open house - lots of food!

Jan. 2 - we'll be at another friend's party - busy weekend!

Have a great and safe New Year's Eve y'all!!
