Sbriciolona (Fennel Seed Salami) - Filiera Valdichiana.
Tuscan cured meats are highly appreciated and consumed both in Italy and abroad, but certainly the Sbriciolona represents one of the most characteristic products of this land, with its pungent and tasty flavor given above all by the presence of wild fennel seeds, also autochthonous.
Originally the Sbriciolona was born in the Chianti area, but in a very short time it spread throughout the region, and beyond, as a typical example of the inventiveness and typicality of the Tuscan people who had given rise to this medium-large sized salami. The first evidence concerning it dates back to the Middle Ages when, to replace the pepper that had become too expensive, it was decided to include wild fennel seeds, certainly cheaper and easily available in Tuscany, in the pork mixture.
For the production of the Sbriciolona - Filiera Valdichiana, only first choice lean meats are used from pigs raised in the wild in the Valdichiana area where they can find all the completely natural nourishment they need and which makes their meat so tasty and tender.
The selected meat, mainly lean ham and shoulder, bacon and parts of guanciale fat, is coarsely minced and garlic, salt, pepper and wild fennel seeds are added to the mixture which embellish this salami with a scent and an unmistakable flavor.
The mixture obtained is bagged and left to dry slightly while hot and then passed to the real seasoning which lasts for a short period, from five weeks to three months, depending on the diameter of the product and the softness you want to give it, so to guarantee the Sbriciolona its characteristic soft consistency. In fact, the Sbriciolona is cut with a knife and, according to its degree of freshness, the slices can “crumble” while they are cut more or less irregularly.
The strong taste of the Sbriciolona makes it perfect inside a nice platter of cold cuts and cheeses or in a rich plate of appetizers, but it is also perfect for garnishing sandwiches and focaccia, even better if accompanied by a slice of Slightly Aged Tuscan Pecorino Cheese PDO. Sbriciolona is also excellent when accompanied by various types of cooked vegetables such as turnips, broad beans, spinach or just heated and consumed, for example, on a few slices of grilled polenta.

The Cured Pork Shoulder is certainly one of the best known and most appreciated cured meats of the Tuscan tradition all over the world. The processing and curing methods that interest it are the same as those of Tuscan Prosciutto with the difference that, being of a smaller thickness, it has a lower quantity of salt and a shorter curing.
