Online Pigs and Pork course

River Cottage online courses have been designed specifically for online learners and for people unable to come to the courses we hold at River Cottage HQ.

In the online Pig in a Day course  you will learn the basic principles of good pig husbandry, the process of butchering a pig, and how to make your own air-dried hams, brine-cured hams, brawn, bacon, sausages, chorizos and salamis.

The course isn't just for pig keepers. You'll find it invaluable when buying your pork from your butcher or farmer.

You certainly don't need to have your own pig to try out the selection of River Cottage recipes, which range from the simple to the more adventurous.

All of the content is explained using video tutorials from Hugh and Ray, along with step-by-step guides which can be printed out.

The course contains:
- Over 60 mins of Video - instruction, tips and recipes
- A complete guide to using every part of the Pig - from nose to tail,
- Over 35 other River Cottage Pork recipes

This course is suitable for small-holders, home pig-rearers, or just people who want more from their pork!

As this is online it is entirely interactive, you can decide which bits of the course are appropriate to you and complete the course at your leisure.
