Flagship product of Macelleria Fratton that has remained unchanged through all four generations, the artisanal cooked Cotechino from Macelleria Fratton is almost completely free of nitrites and nitrates, a choice that combines the protection of the health of the end consumer with compliance with European regulations. According to European Directive 95/2/EC of 1995, in fact, even for meat products subjected to heat treatment, it is mandatory to add a minimum percentage of these substances that act as "reserve preservatives" to prevent the development of very dangerous pathogenic microorganisms for health and therefore a potential risk of botulism poisoning. So when you find a product of this type marked "Absence of artificial preservatives", know that, however, a minimal part is present in the product, legally at levels far below regulatory maximums, or that a natural preservative has been used which should, however, be included in the list of those approved by the EU. Why this clarification? Because a transparent label is the first step towards a relationship of full trust with the customer, as desired by the philosophy of Macelleria Fratton. The cooked Cotechino from Macelleria Fratton is enclosed in a 100% natural sheep intestine casing and is strictly hand-tied. Evidence of the quality of this product is its limited production in terms of pieces, as it requires a long entirely artisanal work. Small clarification: the Cotechini from Macelleria Fratton are cooked only on Saturdays and will therefore be available for purchase only on Mondays and Tuesdays outside the Christmas period. Cooked Cotechino from Macelleria Fratton: a must for all year round. King of winter cuisine, especially that of Christmas, cooked Cotechino from Macelleria Fratton is produced all year round, as it is one of the historical products of the butcher shop. Following the classic recipe of the padano sausage, handed down for centuries, the production of this sausage involves the use of a third of lean pork, a third of fat and a third of rind or skin, all ground and flavored with salt and pepper. Simplicity that becomes true poetry on the plate! Get creative with pairings because, strange but true, cotechino is not always and only eaten with lentils. Cooked Cotechino from Macelleria Fratton: characteristics. Cooked Cotechino from Macelleria Fratton has a typical pink color, interspersed with the white of pork fat. Upon cutting, the meat is extremely soft and gelatinous. The smell is delicious and inviting, while the taste has a characteristic sweet note due to the high amount of fat. Packaging: vacuum-sealed.
