Detailed usage and handling tips

Before you begin, review your trusted recipe to determine exact amounts. A general guideline often cited for curing salt No. 1 is about 1 teaspoon per 5 pounds of meat, though specific recipes may vary. Always follow the guideline provided with your chosen recipe for safety and desired outcomes. Color variation can occur over time when exposed to light due to the red dye in the formula; this does not alter the curing properties.

• Ingredients include Salt, Sodium Nitrite (6.25%), and FD C Red Dye 3; note that color may change with light exposure.
• Store in a cool, dry place and keep the container tightly closed when not in use.
