There are several ways to salt lard. The most common is the dry method, where the lard is sprinkled with salt in a container.
Salo is also salted in brine. Here you can choose a hot or cold method.
Expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" Yulia Arkhipova , a cook and fourth-class baker, told how to salt lard using the cold method.
1. You need to start by preparing the brine. To do this, you need to dissolve the salt in water, bring the solution to a boil and let it cool to room temperature.
2. Meanwhile, prepare the spice mixture. Chop the bay leaf, mix it with ground black pepper and add chopped or granulated garlic.
3. Cut the lard into small pieces and rub each piece with the prepared spice mixture.
4. Place the lard in a jar or bowl, pour in the brine and loosely close the lid.
We leave the preparation indoors at room temperature. The lard will be ready in a week.
