What it is

Uncured Genoa salami is a type of Italian dry-cured sausage made from pork. The meat is typically seasoned with garlic, black pepper, and other spices, then stuffed into casings and fermented. It is then air-dried for several weeks or months, which preserves it without the need for added curing salts.

Why it's used

Pork is a primary protein source and provides a savory flavor and meaty texture in foods. It is commonly used in charcuterie boards, sandwiches, pizzas, and as an ingredient in other savory dishes.

Health notes

Pork is a source of protein, B vitamins, and minerals. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers pork safe for consumption. The World Health Organization (WHO) has classified processed meats, including salami, as Group 1 carcinogens, meaning there is sufficient evidence that they cause cancer in humans, particularly colorectal cancer. This classification is based on extensive research into the consumption of processed meats.

Allergen info

Pork is not one of the nine major allergens identified by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
