Guanciale is the seasoned and cured pork cheek that prized by chefs for it's flavour, similar to pancetta. It's commonly used in dishes from the central regions of Italy, Lazio an Umbria which includes Rome where it's the classic ingredient in three of the most famous Roman pasta dishes - Carbonara, Amatriciana and alla Gricia.
Cooking guanciale releases lots of pork fat which when emulsified with pasta cooking water, creates a delicious coating to most pasta shapes.

Pizza base, Mutti Tomato Polpa, Fior mozzarella ball and a tin of sardines all from Somerset Foodie with some olives and other oddments from home enabled my grandchildren (who are pizza connoisseurs!) my daughter and I to have the most delicious pizzas over Easter. We each chose our own toppings and creative designs - completely delicious and very satisfying! Half a pizza is a generous portion by the way… so I still have 3 bases in the freezer! Thank you Ben
Excellent olives quickly dispatched. Great service… Yum
Following Ben's recipe, I used the Asturian Meat Stew Pack to make a really tasty fabada and it was very well received.
Cheers to all at Somerset Foodie and I shall be back for more soon!
Best wishes

The raisins really are huge. Such a wonderful taste. I use them instead of sultanas.
