'NDUJA DI SPILINGA

A fiery spreadable salami from Calabria. Rich and spicy in flavour.

Like many of the best things in Italian cuisine, they have humble beginnings. Nduja is no exception to that, being born as food for the poor - made with parts of the animal that remained after the wealthy had their pick.

Nduja is unique as Italian Salami goes. Rather than slicing the sausage into rounds, the final product emerges as an intense pork pâté, with a heat that ranges from lively to downright wild.

The secret to it’s magical flavour is the choice of two locally produced chili peppers. The pipereju, which is red, long and thin and spicy, and the tunduliju, which is rounded, sweet and fleshy. The ratio is skillfully measured and changes from family to family.

Use to flavour pasta, add to soups, a pizza topping, reinforce a sauté, give a hit of spicy depth to any plate, or simply spread on toast.
