hard salami

Firm Italian meat

Hard salami is a firm, dry-cured sausage made from pork or a pork-beef blend, seasoned with garlic and spices.

Unlike softer salamis, it's aged longer and has lower moisture content, giving it a chewy texture and concentrated flavor.

It keeps well without refrigeration and slices cleanly for sandwiches and charcuterie boards: Pick up some hard salami and provolone for the party.
