This was right up there with Gina the Italian grandma. It was also good to see such wholesome and heart warming attention from the young generation here for making exceptional quality food at home. 🙂 You can tell he's going to be dining well for life with this kind of foundation. XX

I was thinking about trying to make my own Pancetta because it is expnsive, I came across this gem on KZbin. Thank you so much for the perfect example of part of an Italian family making Pancetta. Just the best, I love it.👍👍

Brian just called me. He said he doesn't want the panccetta. He said I can have it insted!

[@angelinasolis3141]

I love that little man helping you

[@CookingwithanItalian]

Thanks.

[@alteredLori]

Bravo!!!! This will be my next recipe of yours that I make! I have made the soppressata 2x, the first try without the pepper sauce, the second one WITH! OMG it is 10x better with the red pepper sauce. When you make the pancetta how do you store it after it is cured? The 2 of us would not eat that up fast. thank you so much for your knowledge! Love your grandson!

[@CookingwithanItalian]

Thank you very much for the nice comment. I'm happy you whon try pancetta, put it in the fridge at least 3 months. 👋👋

[@alteredLori]

@@CookingwithanItalian I just put it in! The aroma is sorprendente!!

[@roelgeeraedts]

So much looking forward to making this pancetta. Starting next week! It's going to be a pancetta tesa affumicata made from Mangalica-porkbelly.

[@CookingwithanItalian]

Well done, Mangalica is very good. Let me know ciao 👍👍

[@anthonyp-gx3mk]

I Love the passion and the child getting involved! I laughed when he said “For 3 months…it’s hard to block the fridge…but you can do it, it’s worth it” haha, I agree, only us cured meat makers would understand!

[@nikolamilinovic1230]

Looks great! I am making some now in diferent variations. One with pepper, one with smoked paprika and one without spice. Tell me please did you notice any "fridge smell" in pancetta after leaving it for 2 months in the fridge? Mine is in the fridge for 2 weeks now and it kinda has that distinctive fridge smell but no bad smell like rotten or mold.

[@CookingwithanItalian]

Don't worry, that is the normal smell.

[@thomascool1335]

I usually only use salt b. pepper, chili flakes, brown sugar, and nutmeg. and old italian lady told me about how to cheat the curing process by out in the oven at the low temperature, it makes the curing faster

[@peterdoppenberg]

Regards from Vietnam, first step done week freeze, washed with beer, 48 hours hanging kitchen about 27 degrees hope this is not to hot. Piece 1.8 KG I use for step one and now step 2, 3 gram pink salt @ your recipe. Can’t wait in 2 months the result. Thank you.

[@CookingwithanItalian]

If is to hot, do 24/28 h. Let me know when is ready. 👋👋👋

[@CookingwithanItalian]

Sea salt is better.

[@peterdoppenberg]

@@CookingwithanItalian Thanks I use sea salt just a few gram of pink salt I mixed in. I will reduce the time to 24/28 hours, then hang it in the refrigerator. Thanks again

[@peterdoppenberg]

I mean not Himalaya pink colored salt but curing salt I have used a few gram to be more safe.

Like this recipe. Hello from Czech Republic 🇨🇿

[@CookingwithanItalian]

Thanks a lot. Ciao

[@josegonzales54195]

People think I'm crazy because, it takes me 4 years to breed the pig I use for my curing. I have 12 acres in total that I use for pecans, walnuts, and hazelnut that are used for my pigs in the winter months. My feeding process is a little vigorous for a lot of people. But, the love the end results.

[@CookingwithanItalian]

I think you do very good job with your pigs. Well done. 👋👋

I’m have followed your recipe and have the pork belly in the fridge but no juices are coming out and it’s been 3 days already, is this normal?

[@CookingwithanItalian]

It can happen yeah, it’s the temperature of the fridge, it should have cured well so not much liquid inside. I recommend every 15days to rotate it 180degrees. Let us know how it goes! Thank you 😊

Is the spice blend for 5 lbs of belly or does it matter?

[@CookingwithanItalian]

That belly is 1.5 kg

[@dianeclarke4911]

We made this, but during the process we found our nutmeg was rancid. Is it ok to them put your beer washed fermented pork in the fridge till the next day to finish the recipe and then do the second cure?

[@CookingwithanItalian]

The fermentation need 22° to 26° the temperature.

[@CookingwithanItalian]

Yes should be okay 👍

[@Nobody4560]

How long will will it last once it’s ready?

[@CookingwithanItalian]

In the fridge, you can keep 3/4 month easy. 👋👋

We cannot get belly with skin. Only can buy it without skin. Can this still be done?

Hi Lor Vin, Yes! Absolutely you can, give it a go 👍

[@dv5554]

I made this and left in the fridge for 60 days but it came out very hard. Any idea whwre i went wrong?

[@CookingwithanItalian]

Gonna be hard. Cut it and try. Let me know.

[@dv5554]

The taste is fantastic! But i think i need more humidity during the aging process so hot as hard. Grazie mille!​@CookingwithanItalian

[@5309backbeat]

Just a question You don't use any "cure" For your meats ?

[@CookingwithanItalian]

Natural Sea Salt is the cure.

[@nunyabiznes33]

No saltpeter?

[@earlystrings1]

He doesn’t and I think that’s traditional but I’ve seen recipes that use 0.25 percent cure #1 (pink salt, Prague cure etc. ) by weight of meat. That’s what I do and it’s definitely safer. That’s for pancetta that will be cooked. Use cure #2 if you’ll roll it and eat it raw. He ate his uncured and raw but I guess he knows what he’s doing.

[@aprisia]

@@earlystrings1 He's air curing it. The difference in risk between proper air curing with and without Prague powder is not significant as the conditions for bacterial growth are vastly limited by the drying process and there is no anaerobic environment for botulism. It's wet curing where the risk of botulism is cancelled out significantly by Prague powder. At the same time, Prague powder will impart a taste of it's own when used.

[@jben1610]

May I know why must I put in room temperature for 48 hours? Can’t I just put it straight into the fridge?

[@CookingwithanItalian]

Start the fermentation. 👋👋

[@jben1610]

@@CookingwithanItalian grazie !

[@nunyabiznes33]

Oh it can't be cured outside the fridge?

[@CookingwithanItalian]

Try it, and let me know. Is a very old fashion way.

[@acent4714]

👍🏻👌🏻

[@coreytreverson740]

Also you can weigh the meat beforehand and when its lost at least 30% of its weight its done. But once you do it a few times you can just feel when its done

[@CookingwithanItalian]

Exactly.. Ciaoooo

Ciao lo tenuta 3 mesi perché mi piace molto staggionata,. Generalmente dapo 30/40 giorni i salumi sono commestibili. È stata solo una questione di gusto. Ciaoooo

[@alexkostyuk3388]

Three teaspoon of nutmeg? I probably missed something but three teaspoon of nutmeg would make it nasty

[@CookingwithanItalian]

If you don't like, don't put it in. 👋👋

[@alexkostyuk3388]

I do like it and I use it often but overdosing spices with strong flavor ruins your food. Nutmeg is very strong spice and I heard that it is poisonous. I'm not blaming you, I left that coment for people who want to try that recipe, start with smal amount of nutmeg. Nutmeg works every good with fennel.
