Hi Festeem, this is the first time I know that kind of salt even though I'm not a good cooker. :D

Where can you find that salt ? In Coop Mart, Lotte Mart, or Linh Phuong shop ?

Thanks

Linh Phuong shop. Vungtau. But I took the last grinding bottle 250 gram from him. It will last me next 1/2 year. I hope he orders new batch because it always take a long time before they deliver.

I was in Linh Phuong store yesterday and they had a couple of jars of pink salt. On Tran Hung Dao street, 3 shops down from Ba Cu. I would like to buy some bacon from you when you make it. Best

     I made Pancetta. Italian kind of airdried bacon. But that batch is already gone. 2 1/2 weeks ago I made Cappicola, used 8 tenderloins 3.2 kg total, I used the same ingredients from the Pancetta and rinsed it with 1 bottle red wine after 3 days curing. Now it hanging in the second refrizerator. Need to be there another 4 to 6 weeks, or lose total 1+ kg weight before I can try it.
It's more hobby like and nice when I am watching ballgames with a beer.
Ciao.

I changed my original stroler picture for 3 cappicola. haha.

You sometimes have to be careful that the "Pink Salt" is not really pink Himalayan salt.  This does not cure anything at all.
