Step 1
Let the bacon dry at room temperature for 24 hours. Cover it with a perforated bell to avoid that residues fall on it. You can also cover it with a little kitchen paper towel.
Step 2
Pour sunflower oil into a large skillet. Enough to cover half of the bacon. Place on medium low heat.
Step 3
Fry for 30-40 minutes over medium heat. The oil should cover half of the torrezno. If it doesn't, add a little more until it reaches that height.
Step 4
After a few minutes, bubbles will begin to appear on the skin. Leave it upside down until they appear all over the surface.
Step 5
Once the skin is covered with bubbles and with a textured and golden crust, remove torreznos from the frying pan with a slotted spoon.
Step 6
Place on kitchen paper or in a large strainer to drain.
Step 7
Leave to cool for a few minutes before eating.
Step 8
Enjoy!
