Carne Salata

[robarnone]

Hi Guys,
I have purchased some pork leg tips and prepared them like the recipe on Len Poli's site (Carne Salata). They are currently in the fridge and smell so good. The question I have is after I take them out and hang them to dry, how do I know when they are ready to eat? if I weigh again how much water will should be lost before they are ready? Also, is the leg tip a good meat cut for this recipe?

Thanks,

Rob
