Mystycroft
(Halstead)
- Pork & Wild Mushroom
We previously
tried the Mystycroft
blooming good smokey flavoured sausage with
plenty of gogo from good quality
ingredients, so lets give these pork
& wild mushroom try...
We'd popped over to Halstead
Market and met the very nice people
from Mystycroft and came away with a
few different packs of their
produce.
Mystycroft are based at Burtons Green,
Halstead, Essex, established in
2009 and rear their own rare breed
Oxford Sandy & Black, Large
Black, and some Pietrain pigs. The
quality of pork produced is very
high and the flavour is exceptional.
So pork & wild mushroom then...71%
pork it says on the label, but I'm sure the percentage is
higher.
Cooked up they are very succulent
too,
and flavoursome albeit on the mild
side, but with a good bite and
chew. Texture-wise, medium and they
like the "smokeys" do have a slight crumbliness as you
eat which I liked.
The troops here once again concurred, these are
a proper sausage!
We will definitely have some more of
these..
