pancetta

Italian bacon that is made by curing and spicing pork belly. It is sometimes eaten raw, but is used more often to flavor Italian dishes.

Pancetta comes only from the belly (unlike English and American bacon, which is taken from the sides and belly of the pig), is salt-cured but not smoked, and is generally sold rolled up into sausage shapes.
