Last week I found a new display of cold cuts in a nearby supermarket. Those
are "cinta senese" cold cuts, made from dark, free roaming, long haired,
small sized pigs in the area of Siena, in Tuscany. These pancetta, salame,
coppa and prosciutto cost about 4 to 6 times theyr standard-pork equivalent.
I bougth 200 grams of pancetta at 45 euros/Kg and 100 grams of prosciutto at
80 euros/kg. More than 17 euros for 300 grams of cured pork. Obviously
that's not an habitude.
Usually pancetta is around 10 euros/kg and prosciutto is in the lower 20'es.
