Recipe for gorton/corton?!
Answers: My grandmother used to make this pork spread when I was a kid. I do not have the recipe. I found all kinds of recipes over the internet. They seem to vary quite a bit. Does anybody have a recipe that they trust, and their family loves. Some of the recipes I have reviewed include milk and bread. I do not remember these to be ingredients. Thanks
