Questions and Answers
Q:Quick question -- I diced it up for carbonara but rinsed it first because the curing herbs didn't go with my dish -- however, the guanciale was super salty. Any way to soak the saltiness out? Many thanks.
A:Since the Guanciale are pretty salty you can try to compensate by not adding any additional salt (not even salting the pasta water). You can also soak the guanciale in water before cooking for a few minutes, to take away some of the saltiness.
Q:Before using this in pasta carbonara do I rinse or brush off the spices?
Thank you!
A:The guanciale do not need to be cleaned off spices, they just need to be cut into small cubes and then sauteed for the Pasta Carbonara.
