Chiapella - Fillet with Barolo Wine

INGREDIENTS:

DESCRIPTION:

This is a traditional cured product made with pork loin. The fillet with Barolo wine is PAT (Traditional Agri-Food Product) accredited by the Piedmont Region and is only produced in our area. After careful selection, the fat is removed from pork loins and they are carefully and delicately trimmed. Then they are dry-salted with sea salt several times a day for several days and massaged by hand.

The loin is then 'drowned' in Barolo DOCG wine, alternating between rest and massage until the wine has been totally absorbed. The product is then stuffed into casings and dried and cured in optimal temperature and humidity conditions to enhance its taste, smell, and texture. It is excellent eaten as is or with a drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil.

THE MANFACTURER'S COMMITMENT:

"The history of our Salumificio has been characterised for over fifty years by our passion for producing and processing premium-quality cured meats. Giovanni Chiapella has successfully carried the know-how of three generations of expert butchers forwards, creating a dynamic and modern company with solid roots together with his wife Giorgia and their children. Today Alessandro, Davide and Elisabetta carry the Chiapella brand forward with hard work and dedication. The brand has become a privileged cornerstone for lovers of great cured meats, chosen every day by gourmets and connoisseurs in Italy and abroad."

"Constantly reinventing ourselves and modernising within an extensive knowledge base: this is the secret of our company. Recovering Langhe traditions remains at the heart of everything we do. At the same time, every day we also seek out new ways to improve our products, experimenting with innovative techniques and drawing inspiration from the best that Italian regional pork butchery has to offer. This allows us to enhance the quality and flavour of all our cured meats, and bring their full aroma all the way to your table.."

"We constantly monitor every step of the production chain with attention and precision to ensure we are only offering truly exclusive products. From the selection of the meat coming from pigs born and raised in Italy, to the manual processing of the products, everything is carried out to the highest standards. The final touch is provided by the unique microclimate of our hills: dry and breezy, it is ideal for ageing and curing cured meats to perfection."

"We carefully select only the best gastronomic delights that our land has to offer: from the meats chosen to the ingredients of the mixtures. Barolo wine, hazelnuts, Langhe truffles and Parmigiano Reggiano D.O.P. (Denominazione d'Origine Protetta - Protected Designation of Origin) are just some of the delicacies that enrich our cured meats. We are proud of these choices, because we believe that real masterpieces of pleasure can only come from the best raw ingredients."
