I am a native of Zhuzhou, Hunan, and my hometown is usually prepared to make bacon 1-2 months before the New Year, and only when the temperature is low enough, the bacon will not stink. According to the current weather, it is a good time to make bacon in my hometown. The bacon in the hometown is very fragrant, and the bacon purchased in the market cannot be compared with the farmhouse bacon. Bacon is something that every household has to do, and the process is not very complicated, so you can be a little patient.
