Homemade rolled bacon “Pancetta” in sleeve
Made exclusively from selected Italian pork bellies, respecting peasant traditions at every stage of production. The pancettas are left to rest in tanks with a special curing tin for 21 days, during which time they are expertly turned daily to impart flavor to the product. The pancettas are then stuffed into natural sleeves and left to dry. The curing process is peculiar, in environments that replicate what used to happen in the old Friuli cellars, with unforced air circulation. The utmost respect for tradition, the experience of our pork butchers, and the correct dosage of salt and spices allow us to obtain a particularly tasty product, even when matured for long periods.

THE BEST WAY TO STORE THE PRODUCT
Our bacon is a quality product with low levels of preservatives and antioxidants. Before opening, it is recommended to be stored in a cool and airy place. Once opened, however, it should be cut and consumed as quickly as possible, taking care to store it at a temperature between 0° and 4°. It can also be placed in a vacuum or atm, extending its natural shelf life by a few days.
TASTING AND PAIRING
Vida pancetta should be enjoyed cold and cut by hand or better very thin with a slicer. We recommend pairing it with red wines such as Friulian Merlot or typical Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso, which better enhance its flavors.
