Notes

Ensure the pork belly is dry before seasoning; moisture can prevent crispiness. For extra crunch, let the pork belly pieces rest after seasoning. You can adjust the spice level by varying the amount of cayenne pepper. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
