Answers:
Pancetta is Italian cured streaky bacon, smoked or green, which gives a much more intense flavour than bacon!. Supermarkets now sell pancetta sliced and also in small cubes!. You can buy it in one piece from Italian delis!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
What is pancetta!?
Pancetta is an Italian bacon that is cured with salt, pepper, and other spices, but is not smoked!. Unlike English and American bacon, which are taken from the sides and belly of the pig, may be smoked, and are usually cut into slices, pancetta comes only from the belly, is salt-cured but not smoked, and is generally sold rolled up into sausage shapes!.
It is available in any good Italian market and more and more supermarkets!. Needless to say, it is available online!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Italian pancetta (IPA: [pan?t?et?a]) or Spanish panceta (IPA: [pan?θeta]) is a type of dry cured meat!. It is pork belly that has been salt cured, salted and spiced (nutmeg, pepper, fennel, dried ground hot peppers and garlic are often featured), and dried for about three months (but usually not smoked)!. There are many varieties, and in Italy each region produces its own type!. In Corsica it is considered a regional flavour!.
Hope this helps!.
