1224039	2011-08-19 02:36:00	I roast them also, never entirely sure myself what constitutes roasted and what = baked ? as the meat. Baked - skin on, dry, place on a tray. Roast - oil or fat, skin off, cook till outside crunchy like your potatoes. Don't need much oil or whatever - you need high temps and cook them long enough that they get that outer crunch. varies depending how big the pieces are.	pctek (84)

Kumaras are skinned and cut in half and sprinkled with salt. :) Wow Trev, can you afford a leg of hogget!! Mint sauce, roast potatoes and kumara, beans or peas, gravy. Yummmmm.	Richard (739)

1224042	2011-08-19 03:50:00	The last one we had was about 10 years ago. :)	Trev (427)
1224043	2011-08-19 03:57:00	The last one we had was about 10 years ago. :) So you can't get Hoggett now?	Snorkbox (15764)
1224044	2011-08-19 05:18:00	Well you can, but most butcheries or supermarkets label it as lamb. A 2-tooth hogget is really older than lamb, but immature as mutton, which is stock of breeding age. (I think) Something interesting I learned the other day, we use the word derived from old English to name the animal, but the word derived from French, for the meat. Hence cattle.....beef (boeuf) sheep....mutton (mouton) pig........pork (porc) Interesting eh!	Richard (739)
1224045	2011-08-19 05:38:00	A hogget is a 1 year old lamb. Real lamb when you buy it has a distinct smell and flavour when cooking and eating as compared to hogget or mutton and none of the so called lamb you buy today has it. :)	Trev (427)
