Sourcing pieces of the pig

Chiaroscuro says I've "gone all gourmet." Yeah! So to follow up on my piggy piece below, here's a great source for guanciale, lardo -- both items truly hard to find, even online -- and supernal (a foodie adjective if ever there were one) cheeses.

My son makes a pilgrimage to Murray's in Greenwich Village whenever he's in New York. With the new "salumeria" addition to their second shop in Grand Central Station, this is the go-to source for the best of the best.

Amazingly, all things considered -- a little guanciale goes a long way -- their prices aren't bad. And they usually have a number of items "on sale."

For online ordering: Murray's.
