Product Information

In a large skillet, add the olive oil and onions and cook over medium heat until the onions start to soften. This should take about 3 minutes. For the mash, place the potatoes into a large saucepan and cover with water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to the boil. Continue to cook for 10-15 minutes until tender. Drain well and return the potatoes to the dry pan for a few seconds to steam and dry off a little. Tomatoes: because there are just a few ingredients in this dish, use a good quality canned tomato like San Marzano. Just crush them in a bowl, using your hands, before adding them to your sauce. Be careful not to splatter the juice of the tomatoes while doing this.

We do not know precisely the area of origin of the pig; some fossils date the species to Central Asia but then it spread all over the planet. The Palaeolithic hunters already hunted the kin of the current pig species to testify the interest for this animal meat. A relationship that is lost in the mists of time when our ancestors already described this animal in their caves. The preservation through salting and maturing of pork is almost certainly an Italian invention, near Mantua were found Etruscan settlements of 2500 years ago that leave us thinking of a process of salting and smoking of meat that was supposedly sold in the Athenian market. Rich in Flavor: The rich tomato and sausage flavor is truly delicious. This authentic recipe will wow your whole family. Add pasta and 1/2 cup pasta cooking liquid to sauce; stir to coat. Stir in 3/4 cup Parmesan and remaining 1/4 cup parsley. Increase heat to medium and continue stirring, adding more pasta cooking liquid as needed, until sauce coats pasta. Divide among bowls; top with more Parmesan. Step 8 So far we’ve published Terence’s take on Australian chef Christine Manfield’s eggplant ‘sandwich’ with ’nduja (instead of basil pesto), a recipe for ’nduja pizza made in a Dutch oven, an easy ’nduja bruschetta recipe with goat’s cheese and sweet red capsicum, and ’nduja pasta. Where to Buy ’Nduja Bresaola is usually served simply: a bit of olive oil, grated cheese, and maybe arugula. Photo by Glen MacLarty. MortadellaTomatoes: canned whole San Marzano tomatoes are the best addition to this simple sauce. They are sweet and flavorful. I like to crush them in a bowl by hand before adding to the sauce. You can substitute with your favorite canned tomatoes. Add reserved meat and tomato purée and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, adding more water as needed to keep meat nearly submerged, until meat is tender, about 4 hours. Season with salt. Step 6 Ten years ago we couldn’t even pronounce the word ’nduja (“Undo ya,” more or less),” Lethlean writes. Speak for yourself, John. “Now this Calabrian “salami” is in the larder of every self-respecting chef and home cook in the nation. How did that happen?” And how did it happen? This isn’t the first time that ’nduja has trended outside Italy. Some centers of Calabria were among the most advanced colonies of Magna Graecia and it is certain that the consumption of cured meats developed on the Athenian model, creating one of the most advanced market of the time, populated by the most civilized and sophisticated people of the ancient world. It is in this historical context that the production of the Calabrian sausage is rooted, which is still today a distinctive element of culture and tradition, linked to liturgies that begin with the killing, pass through the preparation and culminate in the consumption of the product. The preparation of cured meats and in particular of the sausage is an anthropologically revealing moment in the culture of Calabria. The elegant and harmonious cut of the seasoned sausage on the cutting board with a sharp blade is an identifying moment for the Calabrian people.

Nduja was named one of 2021’s trending ingredients by the UK supermarket Waitrose’s food magazine, although I have no idea how much influence that publication has, while The Weekend Australian Magazine’s newspaper’s food writer John Lethlean published a piece in mid-March this year called Nduja: this Spicy Calabrian Salami’s Fame is Spreading.Nduja originates from Calabria in southern Italy. Poor farmers in the region had to make do with the leftover offal and fatty scraps after they sold the prime cuts of pork. They added a mix of spices to these leftovers, stuffed it into a casing, then cured and fermented it, transforming it into a delicious foodstuff that had a long shelf life. Because of the high-fat content and the chili peppers, ‘nduja never becomes firm like typical salami. How Do You Pronounce ‘Nduja?
