Sopressa Veneta salami without garlic, whole 2.8 kg

The Veneto Classic Sopressa (on this page without garlic) from the Salumificio Freoni Danzi is a seasoned product made of pure Italian pork, stuffed in a natural casing and manually tied with string.
Its high quality is recognized by its firmness to the touch, which, combined with its softness when sliced, allows it to melt in the mouth.
Indeed, the Venetian salami should not present a high hardness when cut and in the mouth, but should be pleasant and delicate to ensure a flavor with an intense perception of aging, savory but not salty.

Veneto Sopressa: curiosities

There are several testimonies that demonstrate the ancient origin of Sopressa, a cornerstone salami of the Venetian culinary tradition. The most important one is certainly that dating back to 1577, the year in which the painter Jacopo da Bassano created the painting “Christ in the House of Martha, Mary and Lazarus” in which Lazarus is depicted while slicing a cured meat very similar to a Sopressa.

The Veneto Sopressa has a single "p" in its name, distinguishing it from other soppressas typical of Southern Italy. It is made from the noble parts of the pig that are traditionally processed separately: capocollo, shoulder, pancetta, loin, and leg.

Each Venetian province has its own Sopressa, and its origins seem to be in the Vicenza area, with differences between the various provincial productions lying in the different use of wine in the mixture.

The secret behind a high-quality Sopressa is the ability to stuff without leaving air pockets; the masters of old did it by hand, while today machinery is used to ensure uniform stuffing.
