NotesPreparation Tips - Want some extra crispiness and crumbliness to your pork belly dish? Try the “prickling” method where you use an ice pick to poke lots of holes into the meat before seasoning. Another method would be to use the salt crust. When buying pork, be sure to choose bellies that have bright white fat.
