More from Vorrei
Vorrei is a family-run retailer, specialising in bringing the culture of great tasting, authentic and healthy Italian food to the UK.Very special organic, free range cured meats! Our artisan products are hand made with meat from black pigs ethically reared in the wild in Calabria, southern Italy.
Calabrian black pork is renowned in Italy because it contains higher levels of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids of the omega-3, omega-6 and omega-9 series. The presence of healthy fats (68 per cent as opposed to 30-40 per cent in other types of salami), means that Calabrian Black cold cuts are much better for cholesterol levels than normal salami and said to be as good for you as tuna or salmon!
Probably the most famous Calabrian salame, the Soppressata is made with the finest parts of pork. Pressed under stone weights before being cured it is a little flatter than a normal salame. The Calabrian Black Soppressata is obtained from shoulder and rib cuts and is processed by hand, with a knife cut, in order to avoid any increase in the temperature of the meat which might alter its unique qualities.
During treatment natural flavours such as black pepper and sweet peppers are added to the meat giving it its distinctive colour. It is then left to age for a minimum of 90 days. It is highly nutritious and mild - ideal for anyone who doesn't enjoy spicy food.
The Soppressata is the sausage that is always served sliced as an appetizer in its home region, sometimes accompanied by local cheeses such as Caciocavallo Silano or Pecorino Crotonese; all washed down by a glass of local wine. It can be sliced cold or left to simmer in an earthenware pot with tomato sauce, to flavour a traditional pasta dish. Great too in a sandwich!
Our Soppresata is a 100 per cent natural product containing no gluten, lactose, preservatives, antioxidants, additives or dyes.
