Hailing from the northern Alto Adige region of Italy, Recla's Speck is a flavorsome and aromatic ham that is dry cured with juniper, laurel and rosemary seasoning. The Recla speck is made from a careful selection of the finest ingredients using methods according to strict tradition from local experts in the area.
The secret to this recipe is based on three golden rules: limited use of salt (the salt content of the finished product must not exceed 5%), modest smoking, and restricted air-flow. The slow, balanced curing process in the open air of the Venosta Valley gives this speck a uniquely original flavor, one that is a true product of it's terroir.
Speck is delicious chopped and tossed into pasta or as a topping on pizza.
