After removing it, I held the skin up to myself and walked out into the living room to show my husband saying, "It rubs the lotion on its skin, or else it gets the hose again!" There is no way to describe the look he gave me. He instead wordlessly closed his laptop and went upstairs to watch Keifer Sutherland fight terrorism in peace, and to perhaps rock quietly in the fetal position.
Well, won't he be a believer when we have lovely lardons of pancetta in our salads and pasta! Stay tuned for photos of the process, finished product and recipes for using all this pancetta!
