If you have quite a few, I would be inclined to make stock out of some of them. Then you can use the stock to flavour just about anything, like rice, casseroles, soups, pasta dishes... the list is almost endless.
haha why buy them if you dont know how to cook them? boil up bro, watercress and puha and doughboys yummm... ...

Almost siding with belowin But I more than often use the good old Kind Soup Mix currently on coupon till Sunday the either Minastrone, Pea and ham, and actually think there is a bacon and corn now but even though I love these two things together this mix never smoked my tyres... tossed all in slower cooker and then pulled out bones and suck thewhat ever out of them. . granted a lot of meat should have fallen off into soup but if you not eating then just as bacon bones which I either slow cook and then eat or boil slowly and eat but always wastes the stock from it. . and that is a sin. . so use the stock as a base for either home made soup, stew but please don't waste. . freeeze until you find a use... they are a treasure especially if they have a great amount of meat on them. . for just straight pork bones same or slow rost with a nice maranide... excuse sp please. . yummy will swap my desert for this. . or some of it... haha

Dough Boys Place 2 cups self raising flour and pinch salt into a bowl. Add water and make into a HARD dough. Kneed out and cut into strips 3cm wide. Rip bits off and flatten with fork and add to boiling pot. Stir to make sure they do not stick together. Glad-wrap the extra uncooked dough~freeze and thaw for next time. Dumplings 11/2 cups flour1 tsp baking powderpinch salt50g buttermilk and water to mix. Sift flour, baking powder and salt together. Rub in butter and mix to a soft dough with milk and water Drop spoonfuls on boiling stew and cook 10 mins with lid off and then 10 mins with lid on saucepan or casserole dish until dumplings are fluffy. . Variations: You can add a crumbled beef oxo cube or chicken oxo cube depending on the dish you are making. . Alternatively you can add a 1 tsp of mixed herbs ~ a variety of herbs ~ or some fine chopped parsley for that seafood chowder... Dumplings can be put into a variety of dishes and made with various additions to enhance those dishes. . Bacon ~ Chicken ~ Chilli ~ Surimi ... etc etc Can also be made with Corn Meal added...
