A first homemade pancetta for the end of the year

I tried making pancetta for the first time with the end of the year in mind. I was worried at first, so it was lovely to finish it and hear that it tasted good.

From haruru.1002’s past accounts.

A first attempt with some uncertainty

As it was my first attempt, I worried about how it would turn out. I was pleased to reach the finished result.

Hearing that it tasted good

My daughters were happy with it and said it was delicious. That made me feel this first attempt had gone well.

Grateful to the friend who taught me

I probably wouldn't have made it without my friend's help. I hoped to try again when I found good meat, giving me something else to look forward to.

Pasta-making in the photographs

The same cooking record includes photographs of ingredients in a pan and pasta served in a dish. The finished plate is annotated “ペペロンチーノ”, peperoncino pasta.
