Pork skin sauteed with chicharron spices

Many lard lovers love the pork rind. When it's real, three-finger-thick, dry salted lard, with the piglet scorched on straw. But where's that lard?? Where's that lard?? In a million-strong city... I'll help the connoisseurs with a good idea. Try making chicharron out of pork rinds - a very popular snack in Latin America.

How to cook pork skin roasted with spices "chicharron" step by step with photos
|
I used to throw away the pork rinds. But not this time. I decided to make a chicharron out of the skin. I carefully cut the skin off the meat, being careful not to leave any fat on it.
|
|
Threw the skin in boiling water, added a little salt. Cooked it for about 40 minutes. Took the skin off, let it cool and dry. Carefully cut off the fat where there was still fat. |
|
Cut the skin into strips, not very long. You can cut it any way you like. And sprinkle it with whatever you like - pepper, flour, all sorts of tricky spices. Any variant has a right to exist. You can make Mexican chicharron without knowing it, but you can make Filipino or Nicaraguan chicharron. I sprinkled the sliced skins with salt and pepper mixture. |
|
I poured some oil on a hot frying pan, threw the skins in and roasted them on quite a high heat. I had to lower the heat right away, though, as the skins began to "shoot" (they had too much moisture). Not as easy as it seemed at first. It took quite a long time to fry. Make the skins appetizingly golden and crispy. After about 15 minutes, I dumped the skins from the pan on a paper towel to remove excess fat - it is not necessary. I wiped the pan to dryness, then put it back on the fire, poured the skins on, and continued frying. |

Well, that coveted moment has finally arrived - the chicharrón is ready.
The chicharron can be served with a variety of sauces, with vinegar, lemon juice, chopped chili peppers. You can just sprinkle with salt - and with beer. |
