Jacques Pépin Makes a Lemon Pig

To make a pig with a lemon,

we're going to do the eye.

(gentle instrumental music)

We got to cut a mouth here.

His tongue should be sticking out.

We need that black peppercorn to put in the eye here.

(gentle instrumental music)

Get the tongue and then you cut it here.

(gentle music)

And you may even put a place for him to sit down.

Here, a pig with a lemon.

Now the classic or the way

is to cut the center like that.

You do it a little bit on the bias.

(gentle jazz music)

And you cut around,

I can't put my knife straight.

I'll put it onto a bias like this,

which give it another,

another texture there and then you can put

a little piece of parsley or something to decorate it,

cutting of the lemon.
