Dried salami is a cured and fermented sausage traditionally made from a mixture of ground pork and beef, seasoned with spices such as garlic, black pepper, and fennel. Originating from Italy, it has become a staple in various European cuisines and is enjoyed worldwide for its rich, savory flavor. The curing process involves salt and natural fermentation, which extend its shelf life and develop its distinctive tang. While dried salami is a good source of protein and contains essential minerals like zinc and selenium, it is also high in sodium and saturated fat, which should be consumed in moderation. Often used in charcuterie boards, sandwiches, and appetizers, this versatile delicacy shines in small portions. For a healthier option, look for versions made with leaner meats or lower sodium content to enjoy its bold taste without overindulging.
