Process

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

On the stove, preheat a large pot with water.
While the water is preheating, rinse and drain the pork skins a few times.
Once the pot of water is in a rolling boil, add in 1 Tbsp sea salt. Stir until the sea salt dissolves, add the pork skins, and cook for 20 minutes.
Remove excess fat from the skin with a knife. Save the fat for rendering lard.
Slice the pork skin to desired size and add it into a large bowl.
Add 2 Tbsp distilled vinegar and 1 Tbsp sea salt, and mix well.
Dehydrate at 150F using a dehydrator. If using the oven, dehydrate at the lowest temperature with the oven door slightly open.
When it's completely dry, air fry or deep fry. If using the air fryer, set the temperature to 375F for 5 minutes. If deep frying, use avocado oil. Deep fry until the pork rind puffs up and is golden yellow.
Stir and air fry an extra 1-2 minutes for even cooking.
Season as you wish.
You can refrigerate extra pork rind chips for later use.

Notes

*If you can find French’s or President’s Choice sugar-free ketchup, it is best. These are the only two brands that I know of that are low carb and keto friendly with stevia as the sweetener. Other brands uses sucralose.”
