Questions & Answers

In what range should the weight be? A weight of 3 to 5 pounds is appropriate. How much weight are you talking about?

There is a lot of variability, but I have seen a minimum weight of around There are 3 pounds in the bag. It was relisted as 2 after the revision. It's kind of like our average, so we'll use 5.

It takes how long for the heater to heat up?

Cook it on low to medium heat just as you do your bacon. Cook/crisp the meat only until it is just done. It is used in a pasta carbonara recipe as a substitute for Spanish, Italian, or country ham, for example. It is a reliable brand of pancetta.

What are the gluten and msg free characteristics of this brand?

There is no gluten in it, but I'm not sure how much msg is in it. This company would never use mash for a product like this.

Can it be kept in the fridge for a long time?

I'd say it'll be good for a couple of months if it's kept in the fridge. To do this, slice it up and place it in freezer bags. Once it's frozen, you can use In my case, I usually cut mine in half or quarter Half a pound of portions should be frozen first.

You're doing a great job! A small town is like a haystack in which trying to find Pancetta is like finding a needle in the The Spaghetti alla Carbonara recipe is something I make on a regular basis
5/5

The tiny packages I have found come in small packages, and I need four of these to make a In addition to the 1. , this There was enough Pancetta diced to make 8 meals from 5 pounds. It went very smoothly because I have a fantastic Beswood slicer (which I also bought from Amazon) so cutting it up was easy! This is a product I will definitely buy again, perhaps two.

I am pleased with the Initially, I was not sure if ordering pancetta online was a good idea, but my concerns have been resolved
5/5

As ordered, the pancetta arrived in perfect condition and was packaged inside a Styrofoam box that also included Pancetta of this type is very lean, with just enough fat to add flavor and keep it from drying out as it cooks. In the near future, I plan on slicing 1/8 of the meat into portions of 4 ounces each and vacuum-packing them with a FoodSaver. My family will be able to use this for a year or more. A total of three pancettas weighed in at 3 ounces. There are 16 pounds in the bag. In May 2021, a second order will be placed I am delighted to present another great I vacuum sealed and frozen the slices and they turned out well. As long as you vacuum seal the product first, freezing doesn't seem to affect its quality.

SPOOLED TO THE THIRD DEGREE! The meat was stuffed in a cardboard box with no ice, no cold packs, or anything to keep it cool or chilled

In the vacuum wrap, there is mold. This is NOT a recommended product!.

There is nothing better than fatty food
4/5

I am stunned! This pancetta is incredible! We've eaten a lot of pancetta in our house, but this is my favorite. My disappointment was due to the fat that mostly coated one end of the steak when I received it today and decided to freeze it. Despite trimming most of the excess fat off, I kept the remaining fat in the freezer because it would be fine for flavoring But tonight, we were in the mood for carbonara. It was the bit of meat attached to that fatty end that I used. Oh my god! I thought it was The fried rice was exceedingly flavorful and delicious after being cooked to crunch. Having my husband with me was a great experience. There is no doubt in my mind that this is worth checking out.

I love it
4/5

It was in a cool bag, however all was melted once it arrived. I'm happy with this brand, so I was satisfied with the product. A little hot, but not very I did not mention that the pancetta was sealed and cured. This was not a problem. However, next time I will place my order during the colder months. This is the hottest time for Florida. As a result, I moved to an area with no Italian market, which is very happy for me.

For me, bacon is a good substitute
5/5

I enjoyed this Pancetta a lot. For a change of pace, we used it in place of bacon to go with green beans and Brussels sprouts. This is replacing bacon in my cooking and I like it very much. There are some people who cannot eat this due to its saltiness. In the AIRFRYER, this is great.

This is not worth the time and effort
3/5

Hormel's cured pork belly was better tasting, but it wasn't much different from big pancetta. That's at least how it seems.
