Seriously any you might have left over would freeze well, or, and this is a most delicious idea, use what you don't use in the pie and the bone to make a delicious big pot of pea soup!

I tried looking online at the various supermarkets but could only find ham hock already shredded and packaged. I could not find a whole ham hock so I felt a bit lost. <br />If I go to a butchers should I just ask for a small ham hock? <br />Sorry to be such a nuisance but this is something new and I would love to do the recipe justice.<br />Thanks again Marie : )Fayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10366738379176217683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-22648988652265872912015-11-27T17:28:48.510+00:002015-11-27T17:28:48.510+00:00Hi Faye,if you are thinking about the HamHock,Leek...Hi Faye,if you are thinking about the HamHock,Leek and Cheese Pie I make,you can buy the ham hock already cooked and shredded in the area of the grocery store where you buy sandwich meats. I got mine at Tesco,but have also bought it at Waitrose and Sainsbury's. Also you can ask at the meat counter. The butcher on duty will know what it is. They are already cooked and not very expensive. You can buy a whole one (alternatively) and then take it home and shredd it yourself. You will end up with a lot of meat from that,but you can use it for all sorts and it freezes quite well. I hope this helps! xoMarie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-18043318222332480232015-11-27T16:23:03.386+00:002015-11-27T16:23:03.386+00:00Hi Marie, I'm not familiar with ham hock so I ...Hi Marie, I'm not familiar with ham hock so I just have a couple of questions : ) <br />- is the ham hock already cooked (when I buy it)<br />- do I want it smoked/unsmoked (I read online that smoked can be quite strong and using the liquid it cooked in could be quite salty)<br />- can I buy this at any of these supermarkets- asda, sainsburys, morrisons<br /><br />Thank you very much and appreciate any help you can give : )<br />Fayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10366738379176217683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-7705901539893547092015-11-15T05:48:13.602+00:002015-11-15T05:48:13.602+00:00I have never used a pressure cooker Ardelle, but I...I have never used a pressure cooker Ardelle, but I think it would work to make the rabbit very tender from what I have read.

Do you think that pressure cooking the wild rabbit might make it tender? I think I would need to take the leeks/ onions in the broth but not add it to the pressure cooker or they may dissolve. Let me know what you think.Thank You, Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10349507691579522116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-29377709614383051892012-11-18T19:04:20.376+00:002012-11-18T19:04:20.376+00:00Thanks for letting me know David!

Rabbit is big business in Malta and you find it on menus everywhere. Rabbit shooting is a favouritew pastime and you can hear guns popping away early in the morning all over the island. I orderd some sort of rabbit stew - but I just could not bring myself to eat it when push came to shove!<br /><br />Full marks to Todd though.
