Flat Pancetta Smoked 1.3 kg piece

Pancetta is a salt-cured pork belly meat product in a category known as salume. In Italy, it is often used to add depth to soups and pastas.
Most pancetta products are made using pork belly brined in a mixture of salt, dextrose, spices and spice extracts, sodium erythorbate, garlic, sugar, sodium nitrate, and/or sodium nitrite.
The pork belly skin is removed before the pork is salted. After these processes, the pork is rolled, with layers of fat on the outside surrounding a meaty core. The rolled pork is then tightly packed into nettings or other fibrous casings. Rolling produces the pancetta’s distinctive shape, while the casing prevents case hardening in the latter stages of the production process.

Pancetta indicates an Italian delicatessen obtained by the processing of the pig’s anatomical region of the ventral. Unlike pancetta in North America, pancetta in Italy is typically consumed raw, and is presented in a rolled format, intended to be consumed by thinly slicing it and then serving it.

This is a typical flat pancetta used in Italy for cooking purposes. Double smoked.
