BACON - NITRATE FREE STREAKY (x 6)

Nitrate Free Streaky Bacon

This bacon comes from Clitheroe based, award-winning farm Gazegill Organics.

It is cut from the rib end of loin and dry cured using their traditional recipe. The organic loin is from their rare breed organic Oxford Sandy and Black pigs, outdoor reared and slowly grown for a full flavour. The streaky is taken from the belly and is a versatile cut for use in many recipes. 

Most bacon today is brine injected producing a rapid cure where a lot of moisture is retained and this is evident during cooking, with their nitrate free home cure, Gazegill use sea salt and organic molasses to draw the moisture for up to 2 weeks, we then wash and hang our chosen cut to dry for a further 10 days, this process gives us a stunning dry cured bacon which is how bacon should taste.  

Warm crusty bread, bacon with melting butter, think about that without your mouth watering…
