Steps
- 1
Place the pieces of meat in a strainer, thoroughly covering them with coarse salt.
- 2
Put the meat in the fridge and let it cure in the salt for 48 hours. Do not cover it.
- 3
When the 48 hours pass, shake off the salt and cut the meat in pieces as large as a medium orange.
- 4
Fill one large pot with water and boil the meat, taking care not to overboil it so that it falls apart.
- 5
Take the meat out of the pot, let it drain well in a strainer and leave the water of the pot to cool so that the fat floats to the surface.
- 6
Remove the fat with a sifter ladle and put it in a deep pot.
- 7
Cut the lard in pieces as large as a matchbox and place it in the pot with the rest of the fat.
- 8
Let it over medium heat so that the fat melts, until the pieces of lard brown enough and dry up.
- 9
Remove and discard them.
- 10
Always over medium heat, add the pieces of meat in the pot as well as the spices and fry until golden brown.
- 11
Let the meat and fat cool enough and store in sterilized jars covering the meat with its fat.
- 12
Every time you want a taste, take out some meat from the jars with as little fat as you possibly can and warm it in a frying pan cutting it into small pieces.
