The smoked stewed bacon from Salumificio Freoni Danzi is a fresh deli product derived from lean bacon, free of cartilage and smoked with natural beech wood smoke, and vacuum-packed. The smoked stewed bacon has a pink color for the leaner part, alternating with white strips of fat. Its aroma is clean and intoxicating, and its spices add a soft and fragrant note. Smoked Stewed Bacon: how it is made The trimmed bacon is salted using brine to make it even more tasty and appetizing. After salting, the bacon is handcrafted for at least 24 hours, cooked in steam-saturated ovens, and smoked with beech wood to give it a natural golden color. Stewed Bacon: a little curiosity Bacon can be used in pasta all'amatriciana, although the traditional version calls for guanciale, by those who do not like strong flavors but prefer smoked ones.
