Tea smoked cured belly (bacon) 茶熏五花肉

Ever since I made tea smoked chicken I am hooked. The meat has such deep rich flavour and texture of  meat is so tender and juicy. I now tried tea smoked belly. As expected the flavour and texture is excellent. This is probably the best piece of porky I have made. The meat is cured with soy sauce and spices, the curing salt makes the meat a lovely pink colour. 1. Curing Ingredients  1.5 kg
