Chicharrón
Chicharrón is a dish generally consisting of fried pork belly or fried pork rinds. Chicharrón may also be made from chicken, mutton, or beef.
Chicharrón, as a dish with sauces, or chicharrones as finger-food snacks, are popular in Andalusia and Canarias in Spain, Latin America and other places with Spanish influence, including the Southwestern United States. In Spain it is called torrezno outside of Andalusia. It is part of the traditional cuisines of Bolivia, Brazil, Portugal (where it is called torresmo), Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Guam, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, El Salvador, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, the Philippines, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Belize, and others. The singular form of the term or a variant of it is also used as a mass noun in Filipino and Tagalog, languages in which stand-alone plurals do not exist.
Chicharrones are usually made from various cuts of pork but sometimes with mutton, chicken, or other meats. In some places, they are made from pork ribs with skin attached and other meatier cuts, rather than just rinds.
The pork rind variant is the skin of the pork after it has been seasoned and deep-fried often to a crispy, puffy state. Other styles may be fatty or meaty, not fried as much, and sometimes attached to ribs or other bones. In Mexico, they are eaten in a taco or gordita with salsa verde. Serving styles vary widely, including main course, side dish, filling for tortillas and other bread, the meat portion of stews, and as finger-food snacks.
In Belize, chicharrón made from pork belly can be served with escabeche (onion soup). There are other variations of chicharrón in Belize made from beef skin.
Chicharrón is made of pork ribs seasoned with garlic, oregano and lemon. It is boiled and then cooked in its own fat, adding beer or chicha to the pot for more flavor. Pork chicharrón is normally served only on Sundays and is eaten with llajwa, a tomato salsa, and mote, a type of corn (maize). There are other variations of chicharrón made with chicken and fish.
In Brazil, it is known as torresmo. The dish may be seasoned with garlic, pepper, and/or other spices. It is cooked in its own fat or oil; the finished product is typically complemented with a wedge of lime.
Oreilles de crisse is a traditional Quebec dish consisting of deep-fried salted fatback. It is generally served in cabanes à sucre (sugar shacks) in spring time, as a "palate cleanser" between maple syrup-laden foods.
