Step 2
While the pasta is cooking, take a pan and heat it up. Cut the jowl bacon in small slices and ease it down into the pan. It is not necessary to put anything else in the pan, the grease of the jowl bacon is enough to not make it stick to bottom of the pan. Cook it a slow heat until is a little crispy and then take it out from the pan but do to throw away the grease that the meat left into the pan.
