A sieve, or strainer, made of a muslin-like woolen or woolen and cotton material. I have seen an example where a piece of muslin was held firmly between two people who stood at either end of a deep, long receptacle. Into the muslin was poured something which needs to be sieved, say, soup. Each person then inserted a paddle with a flat end which they braced up against the opposing paddle. They then pushed hard against one another, moving the paddles from end to end of the receptacle, pushing the soup through the cloth. Tis is arduous and lengthy but, in Victorian kitchens, resulted in soup of particularly fine quality.
A gadget used with a cylinder to tamp down foods ready to serve. This might be mashed potato or an assemblage of cooked vegetables or salad items, meats - anything which might hold its shape once the cylinder is removed.
A ginger coloured pig which originally came from Staffordshire in the Midlands. It is the only red native breed to be found throughout the British Isles and is thought to be directly descended from the old English forest pig. Tamworths enjoy living outside. It is good for bacon but also the pork is full-flavoured and makes good crackling. This breed is still on the endangered list of the Rare Breeds Survival Trust.
"TANGerine/pomELO.". The tangelo is a citrus fruit resembling a thick-skinned orange, produced by crossing the tangerine, Citrus reticulata, and the pomelo, Citrus grandis. It has fewer pips than a tangerine and is sweet and lightly acidic. Good for juicing.
