Dry salami is a flavorful cured meat made from a mixture of finely ground pork and beef, seasoned with spices like garlic, black pepper, and fennel. Its origins trace back to Italian cuisine, where it has been a traditional staple for centuries. The meat is fermented and air-dried, creating its distinct tangy, savory flavor and firm texture. Known for its long shelf life, dry salami is often enjoyed in charcuterie boards, sandwiches, or as a protein-rich snack. While it provides protein and essential vitamins like B12, it is also high in saturated fats, sodium, and preservatives like nitrates. Moderation is key to incorporating salami into a balanced diet, especially for individuals monitoring sodium or fat intake. Its artisanal production reflects culinary heritage, making it a tasty yet indulgent addition to meals worldwide.
