Simonini Guanciale 700-800g

Guanciale, a culinary treasure of Italian cuisine, is a dry-cured pork cheek generously coated in aromatic black pepper. Crafted from the premium fatty part of the pig's cheek, complete with its rind, guanciale undergoes a meticulous process. After salting and peppering, it is infused with herbs like rosemary and sage, then left to mature for 30-40 days. The result is a highly nutritious and flavorful cured meat, featuring delightful muscle strips characteristic of the animal.
