 This is a traditional Italian-style specialty that, because of its
uique flavor, has become increasingly popular in many of today's culinary circles.
Pancetta is made from the same cut of pork as bacon, except that there are important
differences in the way it's prepared - and enjoyed. To produce its Pancetta, Citterio
carefully selects only the highest quality cuts that are exceptionally and consistently
lean. These are cured with salt and select spices, then tightly rolled into the shape of a
large Salame. These forms are dry-cured and aged naturally to create the characteristic flavor of Pancetta. Unlike bacon, no water is
added to our Pancetta, nor is it smoked. Because of its dry-cured aging and because it
requires little cooking time, the yield (and flavor too!) of Pancetta Citterio is much
greater than that of bacon. The distinctive flavor of Pancetta is the key to an authentic
Pasta Carbonara. It is used by many chefs as a flavoring in other Italian sauces, in soups
or salads, on vegetables, in quiche or omelets, even on pizza. It's ideal when layered on
roasts or poultry. |
