About Pancetta
Pancetta is an Italian cured meat made from pork belly. It is typically seasoned with a blend of spices such as pepper, garlic, and sometimes herbs like rosemary or thyme, then rolled or left flat and dry-cured for several weeks. Unlike bacon, pancetta is not smoked, giving it a milder, yet rich flavor that enhances dishes like pasta, soups, and salads. Pancetta is high in protein and provides essential nutrients such as vitamins B1, B3, and B6, as well as minerals like zinc and phosphorus. However, it is also rich in saturated fats and sodium, which can contribute to heart disease and high blood pressure if consumed excessively. Moderation is key to enjoying its savory profile while balancing its nutritional impact. Popular in Italian and Mediterranean cuisines, pancetta adds depth and texture to meals, making it a versatile and indulgent ingredient.
