Cure #1

Also known as:
# Curing salt
# Tinted curing mixture (TCM)
# Tinted curing powder (TCP)
# Prague powder #1
# Insta-cure #1
# Modern cure
# Pink curing salt

Its worrying when you see that some sites selling it get nitrites and nitrates the wrong way round in their description :shock:
Curing is not an exact science... So it's not a sin to bin.
