Volpi's traditional bresaola beef prosciutto (gluten-free and no nitrates or nitrites added) has a sweet, aromatic flavor. Unlike pork prosciutto, bresaola contains less fat content, making each slice more dense and tender.
Bresaola was born in Valtellina, in the Italian region of Lombardy. Holding significant cultural importance, Italian farmers used to salt, or "cure," the pork to extend its shelf life and ensure a steady supply all year. Italian culture has mastered the art of slow-curing the meat and now boasts hundreds of variations of the classic fusion of meat, salt, and generations of cultural knowledge. In the case of Bresaola, It all begins with an intact, lean piece of a cow's flesh. As the curing process begins, the meat is laced with a blend of salt and warm spices. After a 12-week-long curing process, bresaola should be dark red with thin white lines. The perfect slice of bresaola will be a fusion of subtle sweetness and a distinct taste of beef. You can discover a broad range of the world's best prosciutto in our expertly curated collection at Yummy Bazaar.
Volpi's history dates back more than a century, when its founder first arrived in America from Milan, Italy. Volpi's ambition was to transfer the centuries-old Italian knowledge of dry-curing meats to America. Merging traditional Italian methods with raw materials sourced in the United States, Volpi brings delicious Italian charcuterie to an American table. As a family-run company, Volpi is committed to upholding responsible animal husbandry. In fact, Volpi obtains its meat from reliable farmers who practice humane husbandry, keep their hogs primarily vegetarian and grain-fed, and use no growth promotants or steroids.
