In short
  • Pigs from Emilia-Romagna, Lazio, Umbria
  • My porchetta is more a tronchetto', a big piece cut from the porc ribs and belly
  • After deboning I cut off some of the fat until my tronchetto is evenly square or rectangular
  • I massage the tronchetto with salt from Cervia and a well balanced range of Italian spices
  • I truss the meat and slowly cook it at different temperatures for about 8 hours in total
