A day in the life: preparing gwiot

A month ago I told you about Haiti's national food: gwiot. I showed you some pictures of the "fast food" restaurant across the street from where I live. That was at night when they sell the fried pork.

It's the morning when they prepare the fried pork.

Here you can see the butcher:And here you get slightly better view of the oinker from snout to hoof:Here are the raw morsels:And the last pre-fry step is to boil the meat, lard, skin and entrails:It may not look to appealing in these pictures. But I assure you... it's good stuff!
