  1. Parry the pork cheek or the Goder cleanly.
  2. Put all the spices in a mill and paint finely.
  3. Spread the spice mixture on the meat and massage in a little.
  4. Put in a freezer bag, suck in air and seal. Curing time (in the refrigerator, 4 – 10 ° C): approx. 3 weeks
  5. Wipe the spices well, pat dry, hang up in a fly-proof manner and air-dry for 1 – 3 months at 6 – 16 ° C. Relative humidity approx. 70%.
  6. Since I like it a little softer, about 6 weeks was enough. It tastes best when it is very finely sliced. Or dice finely, e.g. for spaghetti carbonara.
