If you are not sure if the wild boar is quite young, it is good to put it in a mild vinegar pickle after the pork rind and part of the fat have been removed. This pickle should be boiled with 2 sliced onions, 2 bay leaves, a little bit of whole spice, some juniper berries and 1 bunch of herbs and let it cool down again. The meat is left in this pickle for 2 to 3 days and is turned daily. Then dry the meat, rub it with salt, place it in a well-sealed lidded pan with a little melted butter and cook it slowly at moderate oven heat, adding a little of the marinade as you go (about 2 1/2 to 3 hours). Afterwards, the meat is pressed into the heated meat jars, poured over with the strained sauce and sterilized for 50 minutes at 100 degrees.
When using, the sauce is cooked with a little bit of potato flour and seasoned with wine to taste.

Our tip: As an alternative to fresh herbs, you can also use frozen ones – these are also characterized by a fresh taste!
