Prepared without added nitrites or nitrates, except those naturally occurring in celery juice powder and sea salt Review: Pancetta or Guanciale. - I have used pancetta for some years to make Italian, particularly Roman, pasta dishes. I learned of pancetta in Italy, no one mentioned guanciale. More than anything I was curious about the difference. So the last all 'amatriciana I made I used the guanciale. There wasn't a discernable difference to either my husband or me, but boy was it delicious! -- no garlic, no onions, just spaghetti, a great can of tomatoes and four ounces of guanciale! -- Ordering and delivery went smoothly. Review: Great for so many pasta dishes - The cut I received was not overly fatty, but it does need some fat to be useful in some dishes as your other ingredients need to be cooked in the rendered fat. It's easy to dice up and render down to use. Very flavorful and adds just the right amount of pork flavor to many dishes, especially pasta. Not easy to find this where I live, so this was exactly what I wanted. I am satisfied with this purchase and will probably order again when I need this ingredient. Not exactly a "health food", but the flavor it adds is worth it! ## Features - TRADITIONAL CURED PORK JOWL – Made from pasture-raised pork, Smoking Goose Guanciale is carefully cured with juniper berries, garlic, and black peppercorns to develop a rich, savory flavor, exceptional marbling, and tender texture. - PERFECT FOR CLASSIC RECIPES – An essential ingredient for carbonara, amatriciana, and other traditional Italian recipes.
