THE KING OF CHARCUTERIE MEATS

Culatello Di Zibello Dop

Culatello di Zibello DOP, a Italian salumi from Parma, is an especially favored charcuterie selection. Lesser known than other Italian salumi, Culatello di Zibello almost never leaves its home on the Po river valley so you may have a hard time finding it in the States. In the US some salumerias make their own version of culatello but the true taste of the meat depends on a key ingredient that doesn’t travel well, the lowland Po River fog. It is said that the fog rising from the river gives the flavor to the meat.
