Chicharron: An Easy Snack on Carnivore

As I’ve mentioned before, I have back issues—I suffer from Ankylosing Spondylitis. I spent over six years searching for the right diet, and I think I’ve finally found it. 50 days on the #Carnivore diet cleared up the inflammation in my neck that had been tormenting me for nearly a year. It really was a struggle—to the point where I was wondering what the point of living was if I had to live with that kind of pain.

But that’s a story for another day. Right now, I want to share a treat that’s easy and cheap to make while staying on the diet: Chicharron.

These are airy, crunchy snacks similar to nachos, made from pork skin (your butcher usually has plenty for pennies).

The Recipe:
* Boil: Throw the skin in a pot and boil for 1 hour.
* Clean: Scrape off all the fat. The skin should be translucent, not white.
* Dry: Cut into pieces and dry in the oven for 1–2 hours at 70–100°C.
* Puff: Turn the heat up to 220°C for 20–30 mins until golden brown.
* Finish: Salt them, let them cool, and enjoy!

Don't eat too many at once—they are very dry and will make your throat parched quickly.
