Pay attention to three points in curing bacon: First, pork belly is the best choice. Pork belly is suitable for curing bacon, and the aroma of ingredients can be melted into the meat during kneading. If the meat is too thin, the aroma of the ingredients can only float on the surface; Second, there is no need to wash pork belly before kneading, which will lead to the possibility of pork deterioration. Some people will wash the pork before pickling, which is not right. Third, it is good to have a large amount of salt. A lot of salt is not absolutely good for cured meat. Don't just consider the storage time and ignore the taste. What bacon wants is salty and fragrant. In addition, don't use complicated materials for bacon. Bacon is bacon, and simplicity is truth.
