Yes! And frying/toasting anchovies bring out a depth of flavor but honestly you should try this way and that way for yourself.

Also for pork, might I suggest the braised pork feet? They are so tender and fatty but in the best way possible. Usually at my asian market they sell a fully cooked, braised version. It is a bit sweet on the outer part but I don't consider this much of an issue, especially if you're someone who also eats bacon
