What is it?

I'm guessing you mean pancetta? If you fry it in it's own fat and some garlic, it's lovely added to pasta dishes or risotto.

I think we have a typo here, Naz, panacetta.......it's Italian bacon, lilacben, so any dish that needs bacon - can be a little saltier than the shyt they call bacon in s-markets, but great for flavour

Do you mean pancetta?

I know what Pancetta is, I was exercising my pedant gene.

loads of pasta sauces use pancetta, or you can put it in stews and casseroles too.
