In our cooking, we sometimes substitute bacon, pancetta and prosciutto — they’re all similar pork products after all! But similar doesn’t mean the same. Both bacon and pancetta are made from pork belly and cured. Breakfast favourite bacon goes through the extra step of smoking. These two cured meats are then cooked before eating — unlike prosciutto.
Italian favourite prosciutto is the same cut as ham. It's cured slowly over a few months, or longer, to concentrate the flavour. You don't have to cook it before eating, though we sometimes crisp it in a pan to go with our eggs for breakfast!
