Insta Cure #2, 8 Oz Pink Curing Salt, Prague Powder, Quick Cure For Meat, Sausage, Made In USA - The Sausage Maker® (Pack of 5)

A cure specifically formulated to be used for making dry cured products such as pepperoni, hard salami, genoa salami, prosciutto hams, dried farmers sausage, capicola and more. These are products that do not require cooking, smoking, or refrigeration. Insta Cure No. 2 can be compared to the time release capsules used for colds--the sodium nitrate breaks down to sodium nitrite to cure the meat over an extended period of time. Some meats require curing for up to 6 months. InstaCure #2 contains salt, sodium nitrite (6.25%) and sodium nitrate (1%). Use 1 level teaspoon per 5 lbs. of meat. 4 oz. of Insta Cure will process approximately 120 lbs. of meat.
