Chianti Tuna is a typical Tuscan recipe that, despite its name, is prepared with pork, herbs, and olive oil. It is a very simple preparation, although quite long; it involves a three-day salt curing process for the slices of pork loin and a cooking time of about 5 hours in white wine, herbs, and spices. This recipe originated from the needs of Chianti farmers to preserve meat even during the summer months when refrigerators did not yet exist. After the long maceration in oil, the pork takes on a delicate flavor and a very tender consistency that resembles that of tuna, hence the name Chianti Tuna. Don't miss out on this fantastic typical Tuscan product!
