Organic pig farms are designed for animal welfare.

The feed is organic and the animal grows in excellent health, without any need for antibiotics.

Pig breeding is carried out in the semi-wild state with own organic feed.

The Bacon cut

Pancetta is a cured meat obtained from the lean belly of the pig, which is processed with salt and spices.

The pancetta is characterized by a soft slice that comes with layers of bright red meat alternating with layers of white and pink fat. Thanks to the presence of spices, this salami has a very intense and tasty smell.

Processing

After salting, the stretched pancetta is placed for at least 10 days in a cold place that allows the aromas and salt to be evenly distributed over the meat.

After the salting period, the massaging takes place, during which the pancetta is left to dry for about 3 or 5 days.

At the end of this process, the salami is placed in special rooms for seasoning, which will last no less than two months.

Bacon or Bacon?

Contrary to popular belief, bacon and bacon they are not the same thing and, if in some recipes it is possible to use both without major problems, in others it is really important to know how to distinguish them in order not to risk significantly changing the flavor of a dish.

You just need to understand if you want to get a stronger, full-bodied flavor, crunchy and spicy (in this case opt for the bacon) or if you prefer to use an ingredient with a slightly more delicate, simple and natural (this is the case of sweet and slightly seasoned pancetta) or tasty and intense (this is the case of smoked or very seasoned pancetta).
