The shelf life of bacon is usually 3 to 6 months. Generally, the temperature is low and the humidity is not high in winter. If you plan to eat it after two weeks, and the indoor temperature is below 20 degrees Celsius and the humidity is below 60%, you don't need to put it in the refrigerator, just put it in a ventilated and cool place. If it needs to be stored for a long time, it can be further baked and dried, put into fresh-keeping bags according to the consumption, and put into the freezer. Usually it can be kept for six months.

The curing method of bacon is as follows:

1, frozen storage: wash and drain the bacon, wrap it with plastic wrap, and freeze it in the freezer. This preservation method is suitable for all bacon, and it has the longest preservation time, which can be preserved for three to five years.

2. Hanging storage: If the room temperature is lower than 20 degrees Celsius and the indoor air humidity is lower than 60%, the bacon can be hung in a cool and ventilated place indoors for about 3 months.

3. Buried preservation: Wash and drain the bacon, wrap it tightly with food-grade plastic film, then wrap it with a thick sticky yellow mud, and finally bury it underground for preservation. This preservation method can be preserved for about 3 years.

4. Sealed storage: chop the bacon into small pieces, put it into a ceramic jar, then heat and cool the edible oil, and then pour it into the jar. The oil should be able to immerse the bacon and finally seal the jar mouth.
