Mangalitza Pig 002 178.JPG

….or “Mozzarella” Pig according to my Daughter! Remember the Lincolnshire “Curly Coat” Pig…the one that became extinct in the early 1970s, about a year before the formation of the UK’s excellent “Rare Breeds Survival Trust”? Well, that’s what Mangalitzas remind me of a bit. Anyway, I’m pretty sure I remember reading that Mangalitzas were only imported to the UK for the first time in 2006 and that there are three distinct varieties…the “Blonde”, the “Swallow-Tail” and this one, which is the “Red”….but I could easily be wrong as I am with so many things! Mmm….Mozzarella? Isn’t that a cheese made from Mosquito milk?
