Italian Charcuterie
Guanciale (seasoned pigs cheek)
$19.08 – $85.84 This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product page$4.77 – 100 gr
Guanciale is an Italian cured meat product prepared from pork jowl or cheeks.
Pork cheek is rubbed with salt and spices (typically ground black or red pepper, thyme, or fennel, and sometimes garlic) and cured for three weeks or until it loses approximately 30% of its original weight. Its flavour is stronger than other pork products, such as pancetta, and its texture is more delicate. Upon cooking, the fat typically melts away.
Guanciale may be cut and eaten directly in small portions but is often used as an ingredient in pasta dishes such as “spaghetti alla carbonara” and sauces like “sugo all’Amatriciana”.

Nduja “Crespone” – Sausage in Casing
$18.76 This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product page$4.69 – 100 gr
Nduja is an atypical sausage, due to its soft and creamy texture that makes it a spreadable salami rather than sliced. Born as a poor food and originally produced with pig waste and offal, nduja has evolved over time to become a fundamental ingredient of many recipes today. It is in fact used both for the preparation of quick snacks and for the preparation of elaborate and refined dishes by well-known starred chefs.
Nduja is produced through the careful selection and grinding of fatty parts of the pig (bacon, bacon, lard) and trimming of lean parts, to which salt and the unmistakable flavor of Calabrian red pepper is added. Air dried chilies and natural pork casing, together with smoking and, finally, maturing for a period of at least 60 days in a special cool, dry, well-ventilated, and hygienically controlled environment, complete this unique Calabrian delicacy.
Known for its versatility: use on bruschetta, pasta, pizza, spice up second dishes, appetizers, aperitifs, with cheese and even flavouring some fish dishes!
