About Capicolo
Capicolo, also known as capicola or coppa, is a traditional Italian cured meat made from the shoulder or neck of a pig. Seasoned with a blend of spices such as garlic, black pepper, and paprika, it is then dry-cured and sometimes smoked, producing a tender, flavorful delicacy. Often enjoyed thinly sliced, capicolo is a key ingredient in Italian sandwiches, charcuterie boards, and antipasto platters. Though rich in protein, it is also high in sodium and fats, particularly saturated fat, due to the curing process. This makes it a delicious but indulgent choice, best consumed in moderation. Low-carb enthusiasts and fans of Mediterranean cuisine appreciate its bold flavor and versatility. Its blend of spices and artisanal preparation contribute to its distinct character, making it a gourmet favorite. When enjoying capicolo, balancing it with nutrient-rich vegetables or whole grains can help create a more health-conscious dish.
