Bagnet
Ilocano pork belly simmered with aromatics, dried thoroughly and fried until its skin is deeply crisp.

About Bagnet
Bagnet is an Ilocano preparation of pork belly that is boiled until tender, dried and fried for a crackling-like crust. This profile follows Panlasang Pinoy's complete onion-and-garlic version.
The flavour is deeply savoury and pork-rich, sharpened by garlic, red onion and whole black peppercorns; salt seasons the meat while the frying oil remains neutral in character.
It is served in chunky pieces with a bronzed, bubbled rind and a crisp outer shell around tender layers of meat and fat. Dipping sauces and rice are accompaniments, not part of this profile.
