They love pork crackling, I usually find that the butcher or store bought ones are always slightly too salty or over spiced.
I had trimmed pork rind left over and rather than let it go to waste, I thought this would make the perfect snack for when I had visitors come round. Something that that they can pick at when they get hungry.

Or even better these also make a great and cute gift idea. Putting the crackling into tiny jars and gifting it to loved ones and friends.

Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 220 degrees. Using either a wooden handle stainless steel needle meat hole puncher or a sharp pointy fork, prick the whole crackling side of the pork belly several times. There should now be many tiny holes.
2

On a baking tray transfer and place the pork belly rind, flesh side up. Season with a teaspoon of salt, ground white pepper, five spice and pepper salt.
3

Now turn over skin the pork belly crackling (skin) side up. Sprinkle over another teaspoon of coarse sea salt. Place baking tray on the middle shelf in the oven.
4

Once most of the pork belly skin has bubbles, turn oven setting to grill to ensure the skin gets even crispier. This should take a few minutes. Tip: keep watching it to prevent it from burning. Once pork crackling is to desired crispness remove from oven all of the rind is golden and crisp.
5

Remove baking tray from oven and allow pork crackling to completely cool. Gently shake off or use a pastry brush to remove excess salt (optional).
6

Once crackling has cooled place on a large chopping board. Sprinkle with a bit more pepper salt seasoning (optional). With a sharp knife cut into large or small pieces depending on preference.
7

Place crackling in an air tight container or jar to keep the crispiness. Enjoy as a snack. Consume within 4 days.
