Description
The Tastasale from Macelleria Fratton is made from 100% Padano pork and is almost completely free of nitrites and nitrates. The ingredient that makes this Tastasale so special and unique in taste and aroma is wild garlic, a rarely used aromatic herb that, when used instead of the more common garlic, gives the meat a complex and entirely characteristic aroma, inimitable! For those who don't know, Tastasale is essentially a mixture of minced pork meat seasoned generally with salt and black pepper. A typical product of Venetian cuisine, in the Venetian dialect its name Tastasal literally means "Taste" the "salt," so called because it originally consisted of a salami mixture that housewives in the countryside would taste before preparing the actual sausages. The Tastasale offered by Macelleria Fratton is made with their special recipe that has been passed down for 4 generations and is then vacuum-packed. Its texture is crumbly, with a fairly coarse grain, perfect for crumbling by hand and using in numerous culinary preparations. Its flavor is bold, intense, and thanks to the spices contained within and the pork meat, it is perfect for preparing the typical dishes of Venetian tradition and particularly Veronese cuisine.
