Add 2 crushed cloves of garlic, 1 tbsp. sugar, 2 packages of salt, 1 kg each. Mix all the ingredients and cut the lard (2 kg) into palm-sized pieces.

Each piece is rolled in the mixture and tightly placed in a deep dish. The rest of the curing mixture is also poured in here.

Then the lard is put into the refrigerator for 3 days. Then it can be shaken off and eaten.
