What it is
Rolled pancetta with rind is a pork belly salume formed into a compact roll, with the rind retained on the outside. The Riserva reference is suited to professional kitchens that need a versatile Italian-style cured-meat ingredient for slicing and cooking.

The product name identifies the Riserva reference and a KG format. The exact net weight, pack details and use-by information are those shown on the individual pack, so the product can be managed according to the delivery received.
Organoleptic profile
Rolled pancetta offers a savoury pork flavour with the characteristic contrast between lean meat and fat. The roll gives slices a clear shape, while the rind provides a firm outer edge. The result works cold in an antipasto or warm in preparations where the salume can release flavour during cooking.
Professional uses and quantities
Slice thinly for charcuterie boards, sandwiches and filled rolls, or cut thicker pieces for frying, sauces, legumes, savoury pies and fillings. As a practical starting point, plan about 30 to 50 g per person for an antipasto or 50 to 80 g per portion when it is part of a cooked preparation, then adjust to the recipe.
Errors to avoid
Do not leave the product exposed to air for longer than necessary and do not cut it with a warm, blunt knife. Avoid using too much in a dish where its savoury profile would overpower the other ingredients, and remove the rind when the recipe calls for a softer bite.
Storage and handling
Keep the product under the storage conditions printed on the pack and protect the cut surface after opening. Use clean utensils, keep the work area cold and respect the use-by guidance. If the product is portioned for service, label the opened pack according to the kitchen's food-safety routine.
