Pezzente – 300g
With its bold and intriguing flavor, "Pezzente" is perfect for curious palates. The name of this cured meat recalls the ‘beggar’, due to the meats used in its production. Historically considered a humble product, it was originally crafted to utilize pork scraps that would otherwise go to waste. It has a traditional horseshoe shape, with the meat hand-cut and stuffed into natural pork casings. Made from less noble cuts of pork, it is seasoned with salt, whole peppercorns, and ground pepper, and meticulously hand-tied. It can be enjoyed both dry and cooked. When cooked, especially with vegetables, "Pezzente" fully reveals its distinctive flavor profile.
