About Pancheta

Pancetta is a traditional Italian cured meat made from pork belly, seasoned with salt and various spices like black pepper, nutmeg, and garlic. Unlike bacon, it is not smoked, giving it a milder, more nuanced flavor. Pancetta is a versatile ingredient, often used to add depth to pasta dishes, soups, and salads. Nutritionally, it is high in protein and contains essential vitamins like B12 and minerals such as zinc and selenium, which support energy production and immune health. However, it is also high in saturated fats and sodium, factors to be mindful of when consumed in large amounts. Used in moderation, pancetta can enhance meals with its rich, savory taste while contributing nutrients from its protein content.
