To get rid of some of the salt, you can par-boil the bacon in some boiling water. Just a min or so. That'll help draw out some of the salt plus help it crisp up really nicely.

Did you take the skin off before putting in the fridge? It comes off much easier when warm. You could always leave it on and cook up with the bacon. Built in crackin's.
