The sweet Calabrian Capocollo from Casa Folino is obtained from a special part of the pig between the head and neck, therefore it is a whole piece carefully salted and flavored.
Hand-tied with cane sticks and aged for a long time. The use of a modest amount of salt makes it sweet.
The Capocollo is prepared using the meat from the upper part of the pork loin, deboned and then dry salted with ground table salt. The cut of meat selected from the loin for the preparation of the capocollo features a layer of fat of 3-4 mm that keeps it tender during the aging process and improves its organoleptic characteristics.
The salting lasts from four to eight days, added with whole black pepper and then wrapped in pork diaphragm. Finally, the traditional binding is carried out, in a wrapping manner, with natural twine and the piercing of the casing.
It is then hung to drain in well-ventilated rooms where relative humidity and temperature are controlled.
Aging takes place in no less than one hundred days from the date of salting.

The sweet Calabrian Capocollo from Casa Folino is not just a cold cut, it is the pride of the charcuterie production in this region! With sweet capocollo, various first courses can be prepared, although its most common use is for appetizers, especially on a Calabrian platter, or as a base for a flavorful meal typical of Calabrian culinary tradition.
It is the star that still takes center stage today at many tables in Calabria. It is advisable to slice it and place it on a good slice of bread and eat it whole, including the fat. It is said that it is eaten in its entirety because the alternation of fat and lean gives a unique, balanced, and soft flavor. Eating only the lean part dulls the flavor, increasing the salty taste of the lean part.
The capocollo, paired with a good full-bodied red wine, will create an explosion of flavors for the palate.
Preservation method: once opened, store in the refrigerator.
