When we tasted it we were all speechless, in religious silence.
We are carnivores, it's true, but we want to be so in a responsible way, respecting the GIFT of food and the animal that has been killed. Honor the sacrifice and appreciate it in all its parts.
The ''Nero Pugliese'', an ancient native breed belonging to the large Calabrian Apulian family. The history of this breed is linked to the historical and pastoral events of Apennine Italy. The breeding is of an extensive closed cycle type that exploits large spaces and few animals and the natural resources that change in the different seasons. The pigs therefore have acorns, bulbs, tubers, herbs and rural fruits at their disposal, but their diet is integrated with parts of Senatore Cappelli durum wheat, field beans, protein peas, wrinkled black chickpeas from the Alta Murgia, barley and oats.
A production system that enhances biodiversity and authenticity, with as little human intervention as possible, allowing the pigs to live in the open air for most of the day, exploiting natural and spontaneous local foods. The delicatessen products obtained from pasture-raised black pigs are characterized by properties that distinguish them from products obtained with the classic pink pig:
- Elimination of the addition of nitrites and reduction of nitrates in tanning;
- A good content of unsaturated fatty acids;
- Lengthening of the maturation period, which allows the product to be more digestible, with a characteristic taste and bouquet.
A few simple rules therefore, an alphabet of elementary things which, when they work, make tasting not only satisfying for all the senses but... exciting. Trust us.
