Processing

The processing of the spiced Lard takes place according to the traditional processing of the master butchers, or as follows: – Six types of carefully selected different spices are used for its production. – The cut of meat is massaged by hand with the chosen spices, as tradition dictates. In this way the meat can absorb all the aromas and acquire the typical taste that characterizes it. – Finally, the spiced Lard is subjected to the drying phase. After that it is ready to taste.

Did you know that?

Spiced Lard has an extremely interesting and characteristic quality, namely the possibility of gradually merging. This is due to the fact that it has several melting points. Depending on its composition, Spiced Lard melts when heated to a temperature between 30 and 40 degrees. However, already around 20 degrees it begins to soften. This ability makes it the perfect product for certain types of recipes such as hot bruschetta, as it can melt without completely liquefying and, therefore, can be easily absorbed by bread.
