Guanciale Affumicato by Carnivale is a traditional Italian cured pork jowl, delicately smoked to enhance its rich, savoury flavour. Made using carefully selected pork and traditional curing methods, it develops a perfect balance of sweetness, saltiness and subtle smokiness.
Unlike pancetta or bacon, guanciale has a higher fat content that slowly renders during cooking, creating exceptional depth of flavour and a melt-in-the-mouth texture. Whether crisped on a pizza, folded into fresh pasta or served on a charcuterie board, it’s an ingredient that brings authentic Italian character to every dish.
Used in the Licoli kitchen, this is the guanciale we trust when only the best ingredients will do.
