Reblogged from GOURMANDE in OSAKA:
I know my translation sounds silly. A cochon de lait is a milk drinking pig. A baby pig. A piglet. In Lorraine, it's very popular food. Especially this Summer dish with a boiled piglet, stuck in wine flavored jelly.
Normally the whole piglet is used, and you eat the meat and the soft skin. I can't get that here. So I used a pre-boiled pig foot and tender filet meat.
