Preparation

1. Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Lay the skin flat on a baking sheet, making sure not to let the pieces overlap; sprinkle with salt.
2. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes or until the skin releases easily from the pan. Flip the pieces and continue to cook for another 10 to 15 minutes or until it’s very crisp. Remove the pan from the oven; put the skin on paper towels and reserve the fat. Crumble into a salad or serve as a premeal snack, with more salt if necessary.
