DUJA SALAMI
THE FIRST! LESONA SALAMI
ITALIAN FRYSIAN MOCETTA
COMPANY. The Aglietti meat processing laboratory is located in Cossato, in the province of Biella. The company boasts three sales points in the area (in Cossato, Sandigliano and Serravalle Sesia), all under the Crai brand, testifying to the great bond with the territory that the property has developed since its foundation in 1907. A path of constant growth up to present day, with Romeo, Flaminio and then Federico passing the baton at the helm of the company, but not before having offered their contribution in terms of investment and expansion of the activities. In the assortment of Aglietti cured meats, processed by adding natural vegetable preservatives (except in the cotechino and salamella to be cooked), there is also the typical duja salami, seasoned and then left to rest for 6 months in fat, as per the ancient tradition local.
PRODUCTS. Duja salami represents a beautiful interpretation of tradition: high quality raw material, clean and intense, which is fresh, soft and youthful because it is preserved by lard. So much pleasantness and excellent chewiness for a different product, capable of enriching a mixed platter and making it a gastronomic experience. In the Lessona wine salami the nose is lively and sparkling, while the bite reveals a soft structure and very incisive hints of spiciness and wine. It is a product with exuberant aromas, not entirely supported by an equally lively sensorial development in the mouth, which however remains very clean and ready for the next bite. Friesian mocetta is a successful, aromatic, complex and clean cured meat, a shame about the structure, which is a little fibrous which penalizes its palatability. In addition to spices and pepper, notes of butter and cheese also emerge, completing the aromatic journey by offering originality.
