Chaz, AKA Guanciale

Chaz and the Charcuterie Book

Back in my second post, I wrote:

"Sometimes Tom has food on his brain so much, he's jokingly told me that when he looks at our fat cat, Chaz, that he imagines the butcher lines on him (not that we would ever eat our cats!). Chaz's nickname has even become 'Guanciale'- a dish made from pork jowls, which, of course, Tom has made."

So imagine my delight when I found Chaz sleeping on Tom's charcuterie book, which contains the recipe for guanciale!
