APRIL 2018

This month, we're sending along something Old and something New. That is, one Old World and one from the New World. The Old: Columbus Salame Felino from Italy, a pure salame made with nothing but pork, salt, and pepper. The New: Olympia Provisions Sweetheart , a garlicky, herby, smoky cut from Portland, Oregon. One timeless classic, one hot-shot new kid, two delicious . Enjoy!

Columbus Salame Felino

SALT & PEPPER

Named after the town in Emilia Romagna where it originated, this traditional Felino is made by Columbus with a 75/25 pork to fat ratio and mixed with sea salt and whole black pepper. The thick casing allows for a long, slow aging which yields a complex flavor and aroma and a finish that lingers and lingers. Slice it thick enough to get whole grains of peppercorn in each slice and serve with some crusty country bread.

PAIR WITH: Pinot Noir, IPA

Olympia Provisions Sweetheart Ham

SMOKY & HERBACEOUS

Olympia Provisions has perfected the art of butchery, curing, cooking, and smoking, and the outcome is this loveable Sweetheart Ham. This pork sirloin is brined for ten days in juniper berries, floral herbs, crushed garlic, and fresh onions, leaving it salty yet herbaceous. It then receives a kick of smoke from ten hours over fragrant Applewood.

PAIR WITH: Rosé, Chenin Blanc
