  3. Unravel pancetta into 6 thin strips.
  4. Cut strips to fit around the scallops' narrow rims.
  5. Wrap a strip of pancetta around each scallop, and thread scallops on 2 parallel skewers through the pancetta so they are easier to turn.

  7. Sprinkle with balsamic vinegar, olive oil and salt, and toss to mix.
  8. Taste, and adjust seasoning.
