This was an accident that turned out very very well! A friend from the USA had written to say how he missed Canadian Bacon (also known as Peameal) so I thoughtlessly went to the butcher's and bought and froze a 4.5 lb chunk of it-not realizing I could not so simply export it to the States. So there it languished for ten months...after giving a dinner paty last night that did not give enough leftovers to provide a meal, I decided to try roasting this one... Accompanied with fresh mashed potato and steamed veggies, this was uniquely delicious...lots of leftovers that will accompany breakfasts, format sandwiches and suppers; any remains will go over to my next batch of pea soup...
