About Breasola
Bresaola is a traditional Italian cured meat made from lean beef, typically air-dried and aged for several months. Originating in the Lombardy region, particularly Valtellina, this delicacy is prized for its deep red color, delicate flavor, and tender texture. Nutritionally, bresaola is low in fat and high in protein, making it a healthy option for those seeking a lean source of protein. It also provides essential nutrients such as iron, zinc, and B vitamins. However, as a cured meat, it can be high in sodium, so it’s best consumed in moderation. Bresaola is often enjoyed thinly sliced, paired with fresh arugula, a drizzle of olive oil, lemon juice, and grated Parmesan, offering a flavorful and nutritious addition to any meal. Its combination of quality ingredients and careful preparation embodies the simplicity and elegance of Italian cuisine.
