Step 3

Spread the spices on the ground pork , mixing well, so that the ingredients blend well with each other.

Step 4

At this point, grind everything with the meat grinder choosing by how much you want the dough to be chopped more or less coarsely.

Step 5

If you want a very fine minced mixture you can brush the meat twice, otherwise just once, it depends on personal tastes. You can also leave a part of the bacon to be ground separately, which is coarser.
