I am 98% pescatarian, but I love cold cuts from my earlier life, when I was growing up in Italy.
Bresaola stands apart from other Italian cold cuts as it is made with beef, rather than pork. It originates from the Lombardy Apine area known as Valtellina, where the cattle are widely raised in the wild. For more information about this cold cut, check out the article 'Bresaola della Valtellina IGP.' |
