Information

Lardo di Colonnata PGI is a cured meat produced with the back of a pig, in the Tuscan town of the same name.

The peculiarity of this salami lies in its processing: after being extracted from the back of the pig, the Lardo di Colonnata is aged for up to 10 months in special basins of Carrara marble and covered with garlic and spices.

It is recommended to taste it in thin slices on toasted bread or as the main ingredient of typical dishes.

The Colonnata lard is prepared with the back of the pig which is cut into many pieces of about 7 kg each.

The preparation of the basin is essential, the rubbing of its walls with garlic for at least six months is necessary to flavor the basin.

Then, the pieces are washed and 12 layers of lard are placed in the marble basin, alternated with 12 sheets of a mixture made of sea salt, pepper, rosemary, cinnamon, cloves, coriander and sage.

The lard is kept in the basin for a period ranging from 6 months to 3 years and, for the entire duration, the basin is checked every fortnight.

Its marble, in fact, is not sensitive to thermal variations and thus allows an excellent seasoning thanks to a perfect absorption of the aromas.

Fresh Tuscan meat can only be shipped by respecting all the rules on fresh meat.

Delivery times vary depending on the destination area from 24 to 72 hours from the time of collection at the warehouse which will be on Monday or Tuesday.
