Slow-cooked in our own kitchen, or chosen at the stall by The Fiaschi family, in Campi Bisenzio.

In short

Guanciale is pork jowl, salted, peppered, and slowly cured. It's not pancetta and cannot be substituted with pancetta: its fat is firmer, melts more slowly, and remains crispy where pancetta would go limp.

Each slice weighs about 200 grams, enough for four carbonaras. Cut it into half-centimeter-thick strips and place it in a cold pan, without oil: it already has all the fat it needs.

In the kitchen

How long it takes, and what goes on top.

Goes well with Carbonara, amatriciana, gricia. Soups, main courses, and rustic side dishes.

Sapori della Rocca

A family delicatessen in Campi Bisenzio, at the gates of Florence, with roots going back to the end of the nineteenth century and to the shop where they sold, poured the wine and cooked. The Ricette di Famiglia line — sauces, ragù, dressings and soups — comes from the family's own recipes. The Tuscan cured meats and cheeses come from outside, chosen one by one: it is the trade everything started from. Every week the family is at the markets between Florence and Prato, with two travelling vans.
