Description
Discover a traditional product of the butchery, discover the bacon. This product is a triangular cut of pork, obtained from the cheek of the pig.
Technical characteristics of the pillow
The bacon has a high percentage of fat, it can be even higher than 70% and, for this reason, it is often used in the kitchen for the preparation of some of the tastiest and most appreciated recipes of the cuisine of central Italy.
The inner product has a triangular shape with a weight of about 1kg. Some pieces may be around 900g, others may be 1.1kg, so it will be very difficult to find two identical pieces. If you don’t use it heavily you can take the clipping. The product is also available in vacuum packed pieces starting from 200 g, CONTACT US for information.
Use of the product in the kitchen
With the guanciale you can always make an excellent impression on the table, with dishes such as amatriciana and gricia the guanciale is the main ingredient. Some also use TESA BACON for this purpose but the result is different.
Let’s say that there are a thousand alternatives to traditional recipes, try for example:
Dry pasta with broad beans and crispy bacon
Ingrediants
