Dealing With Boar Taint
The following method is used by Taiwanese restaurant chefs to reduce or remove boar taint.
1. Fill a large pot with at least enough cold water to cover the meat (defrosted.) The more water the better to avoid cooking the meat.
2. Heat the pot for 30 minutes at the lowest possible setting your stove can be set. You do NOT want to cook the meat at this point.
3. Discard the resultant bloody water and the scum from the pan. Remove the meat and rinse with cold water.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 once again.
5. Cook the meat by your preferred method.

“In my dealing with my child, my Latin and Greek, my accomplishments and my money stead me nothing; but as much soul as I have avails. If I am wilful, he sets his will against mine, one for one, and leaves me, if I please, the degradation of beating him by my superiority of strength. But if I renounce my will, and act for the soul, setting that up as umpire between us two, out of his young eyes looks the same soul; he reveres and loves with me.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I would that the Boar without bristles had come from the West
And had rooted the sun and moon and stars out of the sky
And lay in the darkness, grunting, and turning to his rest.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“Unkindness may do much,
And his unkindness may defeat my life,
But never taint my love.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
