     IIRC, a larding needles can be found at larger cooking supply places, I 
     found mine at Williams-Sonoma.  It's about 6" long, squarish, hollow and 
     has part of one side open.  The idea is to cut long thin strips of fat and 
     poke them down into a lean meat (i.e. venison), to add flavor and moisture. 
     Good Luck, I always make a MESS when larding.  Leanna of Sparrowhaven

Hello there all,
     
  I'm about to sound real uneducated here for a little while.  I was
reading through some recipes in a cookbook and I found a reference to a 
larding needle (They told me to use one to insert piece of bacon fat into a 
piece of steak).  Now I like sewing and embroidery, but I've never heard of 
a larding needle, what it looks like or how to use one.
  Could someone please enlighten me as to the nature of this edible embroidery?
Thanx
