Another option for salting bacon in a dry way. It's simple: cut the bacon into pieces, stuff with pieces of garlic and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. A little secret - together with pieces of garlic, we insert a clove into the bacon, it will give the appetizer an additional flavor. However, if you do not like cloves, you can skip this step, it will still be delicious. Put the prepared pieces of bacon in a bag and put them in the refrigerator for salting. In four to five days, delicious, fragrant, tender bacon will be ready - both homemade and guests will appreciate it!

Ingredients

Cooking process

step 1 out of 6
Choosing a piece of bacon: it is desirable that it is not thin and contains meat layers. Cut off the skin immediately or leave it as desired. We wash the selected piece well, if necessary, clean it with a knife blade from surface contamination. Then we dry the bacon with paper towels from the remaining water. We cut the prepared piece into small bars of any size convenient for you.
step 2 out of 6
Peel the garlic. We cut each clove lengthwise into two or three parts, depending on the size. The main thing is that the pieces of garlic turn out to be long - so it will be more convenient to stuff them with lard. We take a piece of bacon, make several punctures in it and insert pieces of garlic and cloves into these holes.
step 3 out of 6
We repeat the same on all sides of the piece. Thus, we stuff each piece of bacon.
step 4 out of 6
Pour coarse salt into a separate bowl. We do not recommend using the fine one for salting, since the degree of salting with it is very difficult to control, and the result can be disappointing. Pour black pepper on top of the salt. Crumble bay leaves into small pieces and also pour them into salt. Mix salt with spices. In the resulting mixture, tightly roll each packed piece of bacon from all sides.
step 5 out of 6
We put the prepared bacon with salt and spices in a tight plastic bag, carefully tie it so that the salt does not spill out. We put the bag in the refrigerator for four to five days. This time is enough for the lard to be salted and ready for use.
step 6 out of 6
We take out the bacon from the bag, clean it from salt and spices and put it in the freezer for storage. The frozen bacon can be easily cut into delicate thin slices before serving if allowed to thaw a little for a few minutes.

Bon Appetit!
