Skin-off Belly
9 lbs
Skin-off Pork Belly is typically smoked or cured for bacon or
pancetta. By dressing the belly with kosher salt, sugar, pink salt,
ground pepper, nutmeg, cinnamon, clove and juniper, and keeping in
a cool dark place for a few weeks, home cooks can enjoy a superb
and long lasting product that can be used in hundreds of dishes.
Michael Ruhlman in his book Charcuterie, offers some excellent
recipes for home curing pork bellies, as does Marcella Hazan in her
seminal Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking.
