How it's made | For the production of the Capocollo di Calabria San Vincenzo the upper part of the pork loin is used. Only pigs born and bred in Calabria are used. Before being treated, the loin usually weighs between 3.5 and 4.5 kg. The meat is first deboned and then salting is carried out between 4 to 8 days depending on the type of final product they want to create. After this period of time, the meat is washed, dried and sprinkled with wine vinegar before being seasoned with spices. The seasoning of the Capocollo di Calabria is a very important phase because that is what gives the cured meat its peculiar character. The team of the Salumificio Mena uses the Calabrian pepper preserve, in addition to peppercorn, in order to give a spicy taste to the cured meat. Afterwards the Capocollo is put in the pork casing, which is pierced and tied firmly with wooden canes which give the meat its tapered shape. It is then cured in aired rooms for about 15 days. |
