Nothing so rises self-esteem of a housewife as an opportunity to offer home-made salted flitch of bacon. Meat salting is one of the oldest and most popular ways of preserving food. Salting suits best for pork. Being fatter than other salted products, it does not dry so fast even stored longer. The flitch of bacon can be salted either in a dry way or in brine. It is advised to eat it with fermented vegetables. A healthy person should eat about 20 grams of flitch of bacon per day in order to gain energy.
