Pancetta Jam

Pancetta Jam is a savory-sweet condiment made from pancetta tesa affumicata, a type of Italian cured pork belly similar to bacon. The pancetta is slowly cooked down with ingredients like onions, bacon, shallots, white onions, apple cider vinegar, coffee, pure maple syrup, dijon mustard, white pepper, smoked paprika, creating a rich, caramelized spread with a deep, umami flavor.

The texture of pancetta jam is sticky and jam-like, with small, tender bits of pancetta suspended in the syrupy mixture. The flavor profile combines the salty, fatty richness of the pancetta with the sweetness from the caramelized onions and sugar, and a touch of acidity from vinegar.

Pancetta jam can be used in a variety of ways. Its combination of savory and sweet makes it a versatile condiment that can elevate many dishes.
