Compound interest. Compound interest is the addition of interest to the principal sum of a loan or deposit, or in other words, interest on interest. It is the result of reinvesting interest, rather than paying it out, so that interest in the next period is then earned on the principal sum plus previously-accumulated interest.
Guanches (also: Guanchis or Guanchetos) refer to the aboriginal Berber inhabitants of the Canary Islands. It is believed that they migrated to the archipelago around 1000 BC or perhaps earlier.
Guanciale is Italian pork bacon that is prepared by rubbing the meat with salt and curing it for one month. Guanciale is then seasoned with pepper and spices such as thyme, fennel, coriander and rosemary. After the Guanciale is air-dried, it is ready for consumption. When Guanciale is not available, it is often substituted with pancetta, which is another form of Italian cured pork, although Guanciale offers much more of a deep pork flavor than pancetta. Guanciale has a smooth, rich flavor and delicate, buttery texture.
