About Soppressata salami
Soppressata salami is a flavorful, cured Italian meat, traditionally crafted in regions like Calabria and Tuscany. Made from coarsely ground pork, it is typically seasoned with salt, black pepper, and spices such as garlic, red pepper flakes, or fennel seeds. The mixture is then stuffed into natural casings, pressed to achieve a flattened shape, and air-dried to develop its robust flavor. While soppressata is rich in protein, it is also high in salt and saturated fats due to the curing process. It can be enjoyed in moderation as part of charcuterie boards, sandwiches, or paired with fruits and cheeses to balance its intensity. Being minimally processed compared to many deli meats, it lacks added preservatives or artificial ingredients, making it a traditional choice for lovers of authentic Italian cuisine. However, its sodium content may not be suitable for those monitoring heart health or blood pressure levels.
