Review: Carbonara, delish Italian ham, replace pancetta - A gift for my Italian born and raised Italian nephew in-law. He was delighted. I was delighted with the traditional carbonara he made. Hint - render it on a low heat. Even though he rendered on too high a heat I was surprised how good the soft un-rendered fat was. (I’m not a fan of fat in general but this was like butter). I think it is much better than the pancetta we can get in most USA markets. I recommend this for an authentic treat.
Review: Finally! an authentic Italian Guanciale with the "right" spices and taste! - I don't usually write reviews, but I'll do an exception for this one. As a Roman when I cook I take the ingredients for all my Roman dishes very seriously. Contrary to Pancetta, Guanciale is kind of hard to find, Italian deli's carry other Italian brands however is not even closed to what a good Guanciale supposed to taste and it's incredibly expensive, $15-$20 for a tiny little piece. I understand $90 it's a a lot of money for some guanciale, but you can pay the same for about 2lb of the crappy one. I did the fresh/Uncooked test and this one is as close as it gets, immediately brought me back in Rome that's what it actually supposed taste, has all the "right" spices and aged well. On top of that I got a HUGE 2Kg one, about 4.4lb instead of the estimated 3.5lb. So Overall I'm very happy with this purchase and, if you like authentic roman cuisine or just Italian food, I totally recommend it.
