Oh, I refuse even to admit what mine was like - I prefer to shut it up in the old memory closet and pretend it never happened.

Re: Schweinshaxe - Pork Knuckle Recipe
I fell in love with schweinshaxe/eisbein on holiday in Germany but never saw them in the uk until local butcher started selling them recently... For £1.59! So I had to find a recipe, and alloraandiamo's turned out superbly. Crackling wasn't very crackly but I think I used too much beer in the glaze.
Three well-stuffed people say "molte grazie"!
