BRINE-CURED PORK
Adapted from Chez Panisse Café Cookbook, by Alice Waters and found at thesplendidtable.com. This is fantastic and really makes meat juicy and subtly-spiced/flavoured. It acts as a marinade and a cure at the same time, producing pork a bit like a mild ham. A pork loin or shoulder will need to sit in brine, completely submerged, for about 5 days; large chops will be ready in 2 or 3. Cooking time is not realistically reflected in this recipe as it depends on what you are cooking (whole loin or chops). Cooking times are indicated in instructions, though.

Steps:
- Put 2 1/2 gallons cold water in a large, nonreactive container that will hold the meat and brine. Stir in the salt and sugar. Slightly crush and add the bay leaves, peppercorns, clove, allspice, and chili peppers. Add the garlic and thyme. Add the pork and put a plate on top to keep the meat submerged. Refrigerate for 5 days or more.
- Remove the pork from the brine and pat dry. Roast pork loin for about 1 hour, grill over a medium fire, or slice into very thin chops and brown them in a cast-iron pan. They will cook very quickly, about 1 minute per side. Finish with a good fistful of chopped parsley and garlic if you wish. A brined shoulder is good boiled or braised, and is delicious to add to cooked beans.

SALT CURED PORK CHOPS
I was never a fan of pork chops until I tried this recipe which has become a family favorite. These chops are not only simple to make but turn out moist and tender every time. Although the process takes time the physical preparation is very minimal and very easy to do. This recipe is based on approximately 3/4 inch chops, with thicker chops I increase the cure time and thinner chops would be decreased. Feel free to add any dried herbs or spices to the cure, I just use black pepper. I store any leftover cure in sealed container and put it in the freezer.

Steps:
- Combine the salt, sugar, and pepper. Mix well.
- Put the chops on a wire rack in a baking pan or any container that is large enough to accommodate the rack.
- Generously cover the chops with the cure using about 2-3 tablespoons per chop making sure they are totally covered with the cure.
- Place the container of chops in the fridge for 6 hours uncovered.
- Remove from fridge and thoroughly rinse the chops and pat dry.
- Place the chops back into the container on top of the rack and return to the fridge for at least 1 hour.
- Heat cast iron skillet medium to medium high with the cooking oil and cook the chops flipping once until cooked through.
- Grilling is excellent as well!

- To dry cure meat with salt, cover it entirely in salt for a full day. In order to make sure the meat is completely covered, fill a container with salt, place the meat on top, and pour more salt over until it’s buried. You can also add some flavorings (like celery seed and black pepper) at this point, if you want.
- If you’re worried about wasting so much salt, there is another (more modern) method you can try. First, weigh the meat. Apply 3% of that weight’s worth of salt onto the meat, covering evenly and thoroughly, then use a vacuum sealer to seal everything up and let it sit in the refrigerator for about 5 days. This technique is called “equilibrium curing.”
