Guanciale
Guanciale is an air-dried, Italian-style bacon made from heritage breed Berkshire pork cheek. Our guanciale is traditionally seasoned with salt and pepper, lightly smoked over an oak fire and then carefully air dried for several months to develop it's characteristic flavour notes and texture.
Guanciale is the perfect ingredient to add to Carbonara or Bucatini all'amatriciana.
