Dry Cured Unsmoked Bacon Lardons – Made by Mount Grace Charcuterie
Our dry cured unsmoked bacon lardons, made for us by Mount Grace Charcuterie, are a kitchen essential. Made from pork reared on North Yorkshire farms, these ready-to-cook lardons are traditionally dry cured for a rich, full-bodied taste with no added water. The result is pure, savoury depth with a firm texture that crisps up beautifully.
What Makes Them Special?
- Traditional Dry Curing – No brine injections, just time-honoured techniques for a naturally intense taste.
- Native Breed Pork – Slow-reared for superior marbling, ensuring a richer texture and flavour.
- Conveniently Cut – Pre-diced into classic lardon strips, perfect for adding depth to dishes.
How to Use Them
These unsmoked lardons add rich, savoury depth to a variety of dishes:
- Soups & Stews – Fry first to build layers of flavour.
- Casseroles & Braises – A great addition to coq au vin, bean stews, and slow-cooked dishes.
- Pasta Dishes – Perfect for carbonara or creamy sauces.
- Salads & Sides – Crisp up and scatter over warm potato or lentil salads.
- Egg Dishes – A great addition to quiches, omelettes, or frittatas.
Cooking Tip
For the best results, start with a cold pan and cook over medium heat, allowing the fat to render gradually. This ensures crisp edges while keeping the lardons tender.
