Fresh Zampone is famous not only for being among the Lombard tastiest stuffed sausages but mainly for being connected to the Christmas tradition given the past peasant custom of sacrificing pigs for the holidays. The elements that make this sausage particularly tasty are the 100% Italian raw materials chosen and the handcrafting.
In particular, its distinctive feature is the typical trotter shape that makes it a really unique product.
Zampone is a fresh sausage that must be cooked before eating. It is delivered in a vacuum-sealed bag which must be removed before cooking.

COOKING TIPS
Fresh Zampone requires long cooking time and specific steps. Here are all the phases to follow for optimal results are provided:
PROCESSING METHOD
Fresh Zampone is skilfully handcrafted using 100% Italian meat only and following the recipe that has been handed down in the company for over three generations. The raw materials chosen and the type of processing allow it to reach a level of softness and digestibility usually difficult to achieve for this kind of dish.
The production method for Zampone is similar to the one to prepare Cotechino except for the final step: the casing. The mixture is composed of rind, lean meat and throat and stuffed into the pig's trotter, which gives it its typical shape. It is precisely this type of stuffing that makes Zampone a unique food, different from classic stuffed products such as salami, sausage and cotechino, whose mixture is put into natural casings obtained mainly from sheep and cattle.
Fresh Zampone is then vacuum-packed in order to reach a better and longer shelf life.
