About Capacolla

Capicola, also known as coppa or capocollo, is a traditional Italian cured meat made from pork shoulder or neck. Seasoned with a blend of spices, including red pepper, garlic, and paprika, it is typically dry-cured and air-aged for several months, resulting in its distinctive rich flavor and marbled texture. Capicola is a staple in Italian cuisine and commonly served thinly sliced as an appetizer or in sandwiches like the classic Italian sub. It is a good source of protein and contains essential vitamins like B12 and minerals such as iron. However, it is also high in sodium and saturated fat due to the curing process, so moderation is recommended. When consumed mindfully as part of a balanced diet, capicola can be an indulgent option with authentic culinary flair.
