Renowned in various types of curing, it boasts a precise composition of 6.25% Sodium Nitrite and 93.75% sodium chloride, ensuring the safety, preservation, and enhanced visual appeal of your meats during the curing process. Specifically formulated to withstand both dry and water-type curing methods, our curing salt is a testament to A.C. LEGG's commitment to excellence.

Designed for those who prioritize quality in every bite, trust in the legacy of Old Plantation, whether you're crafting traditional charcuterie, smoking sausages, or exploring gourmet meat preparations. This versatile salt cure is essential for dishes ranging from jerky and summer sausage to snack sticks and other smoked delights. For optimal results, use 1 oz. for every 25 lbs. of meat or 4 oz. for 100 lbs.

This 16 oz packet listing is also available in a 1 oz variant. Known by many names – from Prague powder #1, Insta-cure #1, and Modern cure to Pink curing salt and FLP – this tinted curing mixture is your go-to when following older recipes that call for saltpeter, which is no longer available for general use. Essentially, it serves as a fundamental cure for meats requiring cooking, smoking, or canning.

For a comprehensive curing solution, especially when processing at low temperatures, choose A.C. LEGG's curing salt. Its distinct pink hue ensures it's not confused with regular salt. With its sodium nitrate NaNO3 component, it’s the modern answer to traditional sodium nitrite and 93.75% table salt formulations.
