SALAME MILANO
The Product
Classic, finely ground Italian salami from the Milan area, known for its delicate, slightly sweet flavor, smooth texture with tiny white fat "rice grains," and mild seasoning of salt, pepper, and garlic. Made from lean pork and pork fat, it's slow-cured for several months, resulting in a tender, ruby-red sausage popular for antipasti, paninis, and charcuterie boards.
Origin & Terroir
From Milan and the Lombardy region, where this refined salami style developed. The fine grind and delicate seasoning reflect Milan's reputation for elegant, sophisticated cuisine.
How to Enjoy
Slice thin for sandwiches, antipasti, or aperitivo snacks. The mild, sweet flavor pairs with light Italian wines, Prosecco, or crisp whites. Versatile and crowd-pleasing.
