    This video has potentially saved me $1000’s of Australian dollars. I usually buy about 1kg of scratchings for about $130. I love the stuff 😊 Thanks for the video. Your soothing English accent and the sound of the pork frying away in the background had me smiling from start to end. 1kg of pig skin has just gone on the shopping list 😊 Might even get an English ale to celebrate 🥳 Thank you 🙏

    Legit, no joke, that crunch is heavenly. Pork scratchings must be so nice when they're freshly made and a little warm.

    Just got me a slab of pork skin tonight from the supermarket will be making them tomorrow.
    They're pretty good for you as all protein no carbs excellent for me as a snack.
    Cheers Rik.

      Nice One, Jimmy we eat them all the time here with Chili dips - it is Thailand. Let me know how you get on - don't waste the pork fat strain it put it in a container when its cold put it in the fridge - perfect lard. Best, Rik

    😊 I can smell these through the screen 😊 Of all your videos this the only one I actually know how to and make often. Grew up on a farm, my Dad had me stirring the pan at a young age for our favorite snack. Made me smile. Same exact method.

    Love them the bring back memories. We used to get em from a local shop in Scunthorpe when we where teenagers, we used to say they where fresh from the abattoir, some of them where huge and curly we used to call those ones the tails, some where hairy we didn't care they where delicious.

    Growing up we always had a bag of pork rinds in the house. While visiting the Philippines I had a homemade version that still had a layer of fat on them and it was the best thing ever. I thought it was just a Filipino thing! Neat to see that other cultures have also discovered the best snack ever invented.

    As a recent subscriber to your channel, I'm still coming across great historic videos.
    I'm sure I'm not the only newish subscriber or watcher of your great videos, and some may not be aware of some of your older ones.
    Have you considered re-releasing them on here as modern ones; not to fool anyone to think that they're brand new but just draw your new viewers to some of your historic videos which some may not be aware of and appreciate?

    When I was a kid, every now and then my Grand Dad would render down a huge cauldron of lard. All the little bits left over at the bottom we called 'cracklins'...they were delicious :) These look very good...similar to the Mexican chicharrónes.
