They are a popular and traditional accompaniment to roast turkey in a Christmas dinner and are served as a side dish. Description and history Pigs in blankets is a dish served in the United Kingdom and Ireland consisting of small sausages (usually chipolatas) wrapped in bacon.

Print Fabric
Textile printing is the process of applying color to fabric in definite patterns or designs. In properly printed fabrics the colour is bonded with the fibre, so as to resist washing and friction. Textile printing is related to dyeing but in dyeing properly the whole fabric is uniformly covered with one colour, whereas in printing one or more colours are applied to it in certain parts only, and in sharply defined patterns. In printing, wooden blocks, stencils, engraved plates, rollers, or silkscreens can be used to place colours on the fabric. Colourants used in printing contain dyes thickened to prevent the colour from spreading by capillary attraction beyond the limits of a pattern or design. History Woodblock printing is a technique for printing text, images or patterns used widely throughout East Asia and probably originating in China in antiquity as a method of printing on textiles and later paper. As a method of printing on cloth, the earliest surviving examples from Ch ...

Bacon Wrapped Food
Bacon-wrapped foods are foods that are prepared by being covered in bacon. They may be baked, fried, or grilled. Popular bacon-wrapped dishes include angels on horseback, devils on horseback, and pigs in blankets. Bacon has long been used for barding roasts, especially game birds. Description Bacon wrapped food is a style of food preparation, where bacon is wrapped around other ingredients or dishes, and either grilled, fried, or baked. Many of the wrapped foods, such as livers and asparagus, cook more quickly than bacon itself does, and when preparing such dishes it is thus necessary to part-cook the bacon separately, before wrapping the filling and cooking the complete dish. Bacon-wrapped foods can include many things including filet mignon, chicken nuggets, pork chops, shrimp, Jucy Lucy, and tenderloin. Bacon wrapped dishes Bacon roll-ups Bacon roll-ups, or simply rolls, are rolls made of bacon with a wide range of fillings from peanut butter, through asparagus, to cheese an ...

Gołąbki
Gołąbki is the Polish name of a dish popular in cuisines of Central Europe, made from boiled cabbage leaves wrapped around a filling of minced pork or beef, chopped onions, and rice or barley. Gołąbki are often served during the Christmas season and on festive occasions such as weddings. They are also a featured dish for family reunions amongst Polish Americans. An alternative to the dish are Jewish holishkes, served on Sukkot and Simchat Torah. Etymology is the plural form of , the diminutive form of ("pidgeon, dove"). Max Vasmer accepts this as the origin of the word, stating that the dish was so named due to similarity in shape. The Polish linguist Marek Stachowski find this theory semanticaly dubious. He instead proposes an Oriental borrowing, pointing out that a similar dish, aside from Eastern Europe, is known in the Levant and Central Asia. He mentions Persian "cabbage" or "cabbage roll" and Old Armenian "cabbage" as possible sources. The word would have la ...

Pigs In A Blanket
Pigs in a blanket is a small hot dog or other sausage wrapped in pastry commonly served as an appetizer in the United States. The similarity in name with that of the UK dish pigs in blankets, which is a sausage wrapped in bacon, sometimes causes confusion. Ingredients and preparation The term "pigs in a blanket" typically refers to hot dogs in croissant dough, but may include Vienna sausages, cocktail or breakfast/link sausages baked inside biscuit dough or croissant dough. American cookbooks from the 1800s have recipes for "little pigs in blankets", but this is a rather different dish of oysters rolled in bacon similar to angels on horseback. The modern version can be traced back to at least 1940, when a US Army cookbook lists "Pork Sausage Links (Pigs) in Blankets". The dough is sometimes homemade, but canned dough is most common. Pancake dough is also sometimes used, although this combination is more commonly served like a corn dog and sold as a pancake on a stick. The l ...
