Artisanal pancetta made from selected pigs raised and slaughtered in the province of Brescia.
Rolled pancetta is made from the pork belly and crafted by hand. Salting is the main phase, where the meat is covered with plenty of coarse salt to ensure no sides are left uncovered. During this phase, the meat absorbs the salt, which allows for preservation under the watchful eye of the producer.
It has a balanced savoriness, its texture is firm but juicy and tender. Fun fact, pancetta has ancient origins, dating back to the Roman Empire when it was given to legionaries in slices every three days. In later times, it was also used as a form of payment (during the Lombard period) when builders were paid with cuts of pancetta.
Uses and consumption of pork bacon:
Bacon can be used in pasta all’amatriciana (traditionally, guanciale is used) and in various recipes in the kitchen. It adds an extra touch to the filling of a focaccia or on bread or on warm crostini. Unbeatable in spaghetti for a nice plate of carbonara.
So it’s a product that’s great for creativity, with lots of recipes and ways to enjoy its unique and delicious flavor.
