Use this fragrant salami as an appetiser paired with fennel and orange salad or in sandwiches. Natoora Fennel Salami Finocchiona is a classic Italian cured meat seasoned with wild fennel seeds. Sourced from a trusted UK brand, it offers authentic flavours.
Freshly sliced every day at Natoora, in London. Smooth, fragrant and very aromatic. Seasoned to perfection. This is the classic Finocchiona made using both fat and lean meat from the belly and shoulder of Italian pigs, and incorporating a long maturing process in humid, dark cellars. Velvety-smooth on the palate, its appearance is rosy and friable, hence the traditional Tuscan name sbriciolona, meaning crumbly. It is seasoned with salt, pepper, spices and wild fennel (finocchio) seeds. In a product like this, the balance of the key flavouring element - in this case fennel - is paramount. If used in excess it becomes overwhelming and unpleasant.

Preparation and Usage: Due to the high fat content the slices can be hard to separate from the packaging whilst cold. Remove from the fridge well before serving to allow the salame to reach room temperature, this will also improve the flavour. Like any cured meat it is perfectly fine to eat it on its own, as part of a platter or in a sandwich. Finocchiona however is particularly good as an appetiser paired with vegetables and fruits. Try it with a sliced raw fennel and orange salad with a few pomegranate seeds and even some slivers of parmesan. One of our chefs serves it with shaved raw brussel sprouts and parmesan.
