How to make pork crackling
- Brush the skin liberally with oil – as the pork cooks, this will render the fat out of the skin and encourage it to blister.

Can you overcook porchetta?

An overnight rub with baking powder and salt to lower the pH and final blast of high heat ensures a crispier skin. The geometric symmetry of the porchetta makes it easy to carve and serve virtually identical slices.
What cut of meat is best for porchetta?
The more traditional choice for porchetta is a pork loin, but since pork has gotten much leaner than it used to be back in the day, I prefer to use a pork butt roast instead. It’s a more generously marbled cut of meat, which helps to keep the roast moist and flavourful through the long roasting period.
Why is my crackling not crispy?
