Dry Cure Streaky Bacon

€8.99/kg

Streaky bacon lies below the loin (the belly). It is a beautiful joint to boil although often forgotten as it is slightly fatter than the loin. It is definitely worth a try.Dry curing involves a salting technique where the curing ingredients are rubbed on the outside of the pork and left mature/cure over a number of days. The resulting product is smaller in size as the salt that has been rubbed onto the pork has drawn the water out of the loin. The dry cure bacon’s flavour is greatly enhanced and the meat is a lot firmer.
