The Cured Beef Rump from Salumificio Freoni Danzi, better known as "carne salada," is one of the typical products of our Trentino area. Carne salada has a purplish color on the outside and ruby red on the inside, delicate to the touch with an elastic texture, and an aromatic and intoxicating smell. It is a very lean meat, both because the leanest cuts are chosen to produce it and because the fat is carefully separated. Carne Salada: history and curiosities Carne salada was already used in the 19th century to preserve meat, characteristic of some provinces overlooking Lake Garda, it was considered a delicacy for the wealthy, the only ones who owned livestock.
