Romanian Pomana Porcului
This dish is one of the tastiest for the winter holidays. In the Romanian countryside, where this dish is indispensable on the Christmas table, people are used to high-fat foods. Pig’s alms has many variations, but the essential thing is that one uses only pork meat. You can choose the neck, thigh or ribs of the animal, depending on your personal preferences. For extra flavor, you can add homemade sausage and a little white wine.
