The Pig: Cast-Iron Fruitcake


Bill


This holiday dessert takes a risk with chunks of bacon in a fruitcake.  For comparison purposes, this fruit cake is just a little less dense than the Entenmann's version or English Christmas pudding, but closer to those than a panettone. 


The cake's texture and ginger flavor mix with the brandied fruit and bacon chunks with pleasant results.  It pairs well with a cold winter night.  This dish deserves our great rating.
