Every Italian Cured Meat That I Could Find

What is your favorite Italian cured meat?

My boyfriend's family from his father's side comes from Friuli, Northern Italy. Their family name is Zambon, which comes from zampone. Yes, his forefathers were salami makers :D

Me studying this as if I have a test right after

This Italian IS REALLY HUNGRY NOW THANKS ,I MADE NOTES😊😊

Interesting, even for people who don't eat meat. ;) I think properly smoked meat is going to become much more popular in Europe in the near future after the recent news about a ban on eight widely used artificial smoke flavorings. The EU (after advice of the European Food Safety Authority) wants them replaced with new alternatives because research shows the most use flavorings are carcinogenic or possibly genotoxic. They are giving companies time to develop new methods. In the meantime, sales continue. Many people had no idea. Even the famous Dutch Unox Rookworst (smoke-sausage) is not smoked anymore. I can imagine that many people will consciously seek out meat that is genuinely smoked for that reason.

One correction, originally Mortadella was made entirely of Horse meat and fat from under the mane.

I was hoping this video would include Lardo, and at the 10:57 mark, I wasn't disappointed. IMHO, Lardo is food of the Gods. I was introduced to Lardo in 2014 at Ristorante "Il Nido del Corvo" in Greccio, Italy.

Great show!!

You're missing boudin/budino sausage from Aosta. It's a cured salami with beetroot, potatoes, and spices.
