How do we ship Salama da Sugo di Ferrara

The peculiarity of Ferrarese Salama da Sugo is its cooking: it must be cooked for at least 5 hours and suspended on its twine. It is a mixture of national pork meat: throat, capocollo, bacon, shoulder, tongue and liver usually mixed with Sangiovese wine, rum, salt, pepper and flavored with nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves. Everything is stuffed in a natural pig bladder, tied manually in the classic spherical shape divided into wedges, and aged for 6 to 12 months.

According to tradition, Salama da Sugo is eaten by reducing its pulp into small crumbs, placed on a soft mashed potato or pumpkin, rather than on a soft polenta sprinkled with its tasty and fragrant sauce. L&' the best accompaniment is a liquid potato or pumpkin puree. Then famous is the risotto with leeks and sauce salami. Ideal if eaten with the Ferrara couple, the typical Ferrara curled bread.
