If brown water is coming from your hot water taps only, it may be rust and sediment in your water heater acting up. Water heaters usually have a lifespan of 10 to 15 years. If your water heater falls somewhere in this range, and your hot water comes out brown often, it may be time to replace it.
Curing is any of various food preservation and flavoring processes of foods such as meat, fish and vegetables, by the addition of combinations of salt, nitrates, nitrites, or sugar, with the aim of drawing moisture out of the food by the process of osmosis. Many curing processes also involve smoking, spicing, or cooking.
The dry salt curing takes care of the bacteria in the meat. As the bacon sits out, the surface dries out, and this prevents new bacteria from forming. Itâs incredibly, really, that the salt can make the meat and fat stable at room temperature. Think of it just like a meat jerky â but not quite as hard (same concept).
