About Capicola
Capicola, also known as coppa or capocollo, is a traditional Italian cured meat made from pork shoulder or neck. This deli specialty is seasoned with a blend of herbs and spices, often including garlic, paprika, and black pepper, then dry-cured and thinly sliced. It boasts a rich, smoky flavor and tender texture, making it a popular addition to charcuterie boards and sandwiches. While capicola is a good source of protein, it is also high in sodium and saturated fats due to the curing process. As such, it should be consumed in moderation, especially for those monitoring their cardiovascular health. Originating from Italy, capicola reflects the country’s artisanal approach to food preservation and flavorful cuisine. Pairing it with fruits or vegetables can balance its richness and enhance the overall nutritional profile of a meal.
