Title: Pancetta. Easy roll
Post by: Northshore on June 21, 2016, 12:44:45 PM

First of all Good Morning to all.  It's been a while since I last posted anything. Health issues keep interfering with my hobbies. 
A friend of mine showed me a simple way to roll and tie pancetta this morning that guarantees a tight
Roll.   He cut bands from one if the thin plastic vegetable cutting sheets. 1-1 1/2 inches wide and long enough to circle the roll.  Hose clamps (stainless steel) both 5" and 6".
Start in middle turn clamp down tight. Tie with butchers twine either side of plastic, move clamp over and repeat to both ends. Pancetta put into umai dry bags. Sorry about photo links

I was so inspired I printed a Pancetta recipe and checked my supply of Umai dry bags! Great idea.
