Brooklyn Cured Sliced Finocchiona puts a modern New York spin on an old European recipe. Finocchiona has roots in Renaissance Italy, when pork was cured and flavored with the fennel or finocchio that grew among the Tuscan hillsides. Today, Brooklyn Cured draws upon tradition to create this refreshingly herbaceous interpretation. Try it with Murray's Burrata and a smear of Fallot Smooth Dijon Mustard.
“Locally made and cured, this domestic take on an Italian classic is herbaceous and sweet, with a mineral flavor. Its incredibly tender mouthfeel makes it versatile, perfect for any fennel lover’s sandwich or charcuterie board. Pair with your favorite sheep’s milk cheese and some hot honey.”
