Pancetta lollipop round 500gr
Περιγραφή
The ultimate surprise-shaped snack – a taste that… sticks like a lollipop!
✨ Description
The pancetta lollipop is the ultimate modern street food version of the Greek meze. It is a handmade roll of fine pork pancetta , wrapped in a round shape and threaded through a straw, creating the sensation of... a lollipop – but for adults with taste!
The piece has been carefully marinated for hours in a mixture of:
-
Dijon mustard
-
Sweet & smoked paprika
-
Rosemary, thyme and garlic
-
Olive oil & fresh pepper
-
A hint of lemon zest
The result is a rich, caramelized exterior with a juicy interior and a perfect, melt-in-your-mouth texture. It's so impressive in appearance that it could even stand on a brunch plate, but so delicious that it becomes the star of BBQs, kids' parties or group appetizers.
Ideal for oven, grill, barbecue or even air fryer.
