After a (relatively) quick salt-and-sugar cure, these bits of porky goodness will keep for months in the freezer, ready to add meaty flavor to all kinds of dishes. This is a great way to use up scraps (especially fatty scraps) from prepping legs, hocks, necks, shoulders or bellies. Recipe by Chichi Wang at Serious Eats. http://bit.ly/auhMhP

Steps:
- Toss pork bits, salt and sugar (and herbs if using) in a large bowl. Transfer to a plastic bag or container and refrigerate 5-7 days. (If pieces are smaller than 2", cure may take less time.) Toss pieces to redistribute the cure and refrigerate another 5-7 days.
- Rinse meat well and pat dry thoroughly. Store in refrigerator up to 2 weeks longer, or up to 6 months in freezer.
