What it is
Sorrentino smoked pork speck in a vacuum-packed half piece of approximately 2 kg. It is a cured pork product with a firm slice, savoury seasoning and gentle smoke.
Product reference and format
The current commercial name identifies a half piece of about 2 kg and the supplier reference describes smoked pork speck in a vacuum pack. The half piece can be sliced to order.
Organoleptic profile
The texture is compact and sliceable, with balanced salt and restrained smoke. Thin slices are aromatic and supple; diced pieces give sauces, fillings and pizza a deeper savoury note.
Professional uses and portions
Slice 40 to 60 g per person for a board or aperitivo, or dice 60 to 80 g for pasta, risotto, canederli, eggs and pizza. Render gently so the meat does not dry.
Common mistakes to avoid
Do not slice the whole piece in advance if it will not be used quickly, and do not cook it at excessive heat. Taste before adding salt because the cured product is already seasoned.
Storage and handling
Keep the vacuum pack refrigerated at the label temperature and protected from light and changes. After opening, wrap the cut surface, keep refrigerated and use promptly.
