Some bacon is easy to get moldy if it is kept for a long time. It's a pity that moldy bacon is not thrown away. What should I do? How to preserve bacon in life so as not to get moldy easily? Let's have a look.
First of all, frozen storage.
After the bacon is cleaned and drained, it is wrapped with plastic wrap and frozen in the freezer. This storage method is suitable for all bacon and has the longest storage time. Even if you keep it for three to five years, there is no problem. If you seal it again, the effect will be better. You can also store bacon in the refrigerator, so it can be kept for at least one year without spoilage.
Second, hanging preservation.
If your local room temperature is below 20 degrees Celsius and the humidity in the indoor air is below 60%, you can hang the bacon in a cool and ventilated place indoors to avoid sunlight, which can last for about 3 months. The lower the room temperature and humidity, the longer it will last.
This method of preserving bacon has a disadvantage, that is, it is easy to leak oil after a long time, which will turn bacon into firewood and affect the taste, so it is only suitable for short-term preservation when bacon is cold.
Third, buried soil preservation.
After the bacon is cleaned and drained, it should be wrapped tightly with food-grade plastic film, preferably with several more layers of plastic film, then wrapped with a thick sticky yellow mud, and finally buried underground for preservation. This preservation method can be preserved for a long time of 3 years, and the taste will be more delicious after taking it out. In fact, this method of preserving bacon is very popular in Yunnan, and the locals call it fragrant meat.
Fourth, seal the altar for preservation.
Chop the cleaned and drained bacon into small pieces and put them in a ceramic jar. Then cook the cooking oil, cool it and put it in a jar. The amount of oil should be enough to immerse the bacon. Finally, just seal the jar mouth. This method of preserving bacon can last for one year.

Smoked bacon itself has a strong anti-corrosion ability, and it is no problem to store it at will, especially the bacon smoked with cypress branches, which will not go bad when hung in a cool and ventilated place in dog days. But now a lot of smoked bacon is smoked quickly, so it is safer to preserve it by the above method.
Life tips:
1. As a meat product, bacon will not go bad for a long time. After winter to the future, the bacon made before the great cold has the longest preservation time and is not easy to deteriorate. Preserved at room temperature, bacon tastes most authentic before rape blossoms wither. In spring, with the increase of temperature, sausage bacon will continue to hang at room temperature. Although the meat quality of bacon remains unchanged, the taste will become pungent. Moreover, the climate in spring is getting more and more humid, and cured products such as sausages and bacon are prone to grow hair and mildew, which will not only make the meat too dry and tight, but also affect the taste.
2. Because a lot of salt has been used in making bacon, it is best not to put salt in cooking, so as to control the salt intake in a meal. If there are other fried bacon dishes, you can fry the bacon for a while before adding vegetables, which can also play a role in seasoning the vegetables. When eating bacon, you can cook the bacon first and then steam it, so that water can slowly penetrate into the meat tissue. On the one hand, it can moisten air-dried bacon, on the other hand, it can remove excessive salt from bacon.
If the bacon is slightly moldy, wash it with white wine. Please don't eat it if it smells bad or is seriously moldy. Usually pay attention to storage.
