Ageing and curing pork naturally..Hand Hewn Farm prosciutto and making pancetta
What happens here
Once the pancetta has reached its desired weight loss (typically around 30-35% of its initial weight) and has aged for several weeks to months in the curing chamber, it is ready to be sliced. Use a meat slicer to cut thin, uniform slices of pancetta. The finished pancetta should have a firm texture and a rich, savory aroma.
Goal: Slice the cured pancetta for consumption.
