Tarese Valdarno
Valdarno Tarese
A flat pancetta of extraordinary size, its sides 50 centimetres and sometimes 80, cut from the back, the belly and part of the prized chine of heavy pigs that used to reach 200 kilos. The flavour is long and pronounced but softer than most cured meats made the same way.
