PROCESSING STAGES
The meat selected for Bresaola punta d'anca undergoes the dry salting process with salt, natural flavourings and ground pepper. This phase can last several days (normally around 10-15) depending on the season, the altitude at which the processing takes place and the size of the product. Next, the meat is cleaned, stuffed into casings, and then cured for a period of four to eight weeks.
HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Bresaola Punta d'anca is a typical product of the Valtellina valley area. In more recent times, it has also become typical of the Ossola Valley. The etymology of the word 'Bresaola' is still extremely uncertain. The suffix 'saola' can easily be attributed to the salting process used to preserve the meat. The origin of the whole name, on the other hand, is still much debated. According to some people, it comes from the Valtellinese word 'brasa', meaning 'embers', because the places where the curing process took place were heated by braziers. Others, however, believe that the origin can be found in the word 'brisa', which indicates a particular gland in cattle.
