Last nights dinner. I found the neck end piece of suckling pig in the freezer. I slow roasted it and we had it cold with slaw and sour cream, tomatoes, feta and adjvar. Pud grapes.

I made chicken nuggets and some dipping sauces:

The funny thing is, I planned on making chicken nuggets with this chicken for a few days now, using a recipe I've used several times before.
Today, I was randomly watching Chef John/Food Wishes videos, and he happened to do one for chicken fingers.
"Hey, that hot mustard dipping sauce of his sounds good, I think I'll make that for my nuggets."
Watching the video, though, I was intrigued by his use of hard cider in the batter instead of beer, so I ended up using his batter recipe as well.
I tip my hat to the suggestion of using cider. It worked really well. Sauces were sweet and sour, and the hot mustard.
I was really happy with that batter - two ingredients, and I had cider left over to drink. I think it'll be my default deep-fry batter, until I find something I like better.I saw that episode. I cook with hard cider often. The drier the better. I have not made a batter with it, yet.
