Taste the Culatello with a dry sparkling wine, not too aromatic, such as Lambrusco and Malvasia. Slice it not too thin and eat it with good bread and some butter curls.
The Culatello is born from an art handed down from generations that embraces the history of a land lying along the great Po river. The foggy days of winter and the hot days of summer imbue the Culatello with a quality and flavor that make it the king of cured meats.
Produced by the best manufacturers in the P.D.O. area of Culatello (Protected Designation of Origin) under the protection and the supervision of the Consortium of Culatello which guarantees the authenticity of the origin, according to the production rules which require an handicraft process and a minimum curing of 12 months.
Preparation: remove the cord and put the culatello under running water. Dry it carefully and remove the bladder. If you want to soften the culatello wrap it in a cloth dampened with white wine for 2 or 3 days. Cut away the external impurities with a sharp knife and then slice thinly the culatello. Grease the cut part with butter or olive-oil, then wrap the culatello in a tea towel. Once cut eat the culatello in a short time, to fully taste its delicacy.
