Sainsbury's Discovery 120g Sicilian Black Pig Roled Pancetta, Taste the Difference

Sourced from second generation family producers in the heart of Calabria. Matured for a minimum of 70 days​

Handcrafted

Made with pork belly from Nebrodi Black Pig native to North-East Sicily, where they are traditionally reared on a foraged diet. Handcrafted in Calabria, the meat is massaged with a signature blend of spices, hand-rolled and slowly matured, before being sliced wafer thin for a delicate melt-in-the-mouth texture

We believe great taste begins with a story - of provenance, passion and craft. Our thoughtfully curated selection of products celebrate the roots of exquisite flavour, taking you on a journey of discovery.

Expertly crafted by the second-generation Madeo family in the town of San Demetrio Corone, located between the Ionian Sea and the Presilane hills in Calabria. With 40 years of expertise, inspired by long-standing, traditional Italian recipes, the family have refined their craft to complement the warmer climates of southern Italy, which provides the perfect range of temperatures for making charcuterie

Made using meat from the Sicilian Nebrodi Black Pig, indigenous to the north-eastern landscapes of Sicily. These pigs are traditionally reared in the provinces of Messina and Catania, and forage on a diet of wild herbs, acorns and cereals, to give the meat a distinctive depth of flavour

Once the pork belly reaches Calabria, it’s hand massaged with a signature salt cure, flavoured with cinnamon, cloves, mace, black pepper, garlic, coriander, nutmeg and ginger. The meat is then hand‑rolled, tied, and left to mature for a minimum of 70 days, to create a uniquely rich and aromatic flavour profile. Finally, it’s sliced wafer thin, to achieve the distinct ‘arrotolata’ visual and ultimate melt‑in‑the‑mouth texture – a true expression of Sicilian provenance and Calabrian craftsmanship

Made using 127g of raw pork per 100g of pancetta. Moisture is lost during the drying process.
