Pancetta is Italy’s delicious answer to bacon, and Pancetta Americana by La Quercia is the great American version of this flavorful delicacy.
Made from antibiotic free, vegetarian fed pork from Lancaster, Large White and Duroc breeds raised in rural Iowa, this pork belly is cured with sea salt, black and white pepper and rosemary and bay leaf and then rolled and left to cure for 2 months. This meaty treat develops a rich, buttery texture and a sweet, herbal flavor that is absolutely mouthwatering.
Use it to wrap meats and throw on the grill for a delicious twist; cube, fry up and toss into soups, sauces and salads for a hearty, crispy addition; add it to scrambled or fried eggs, over vegetables with cheese for a sumptuous au gratin dish, or generously sprinkle over pizza. However you choose to serve it – even in a simple sandwich - Pancetta Americana will add deep, rich, sweet and salty flavor to any dish.
