Salumi Chicago
Providing premium meat is just the start for us. We want to make sure you understand how to enjoy them to their fullest extent. Meat is more than just a food to us, it's an art.
The mold you're visualizing is naturally occurring on our salami and good. It helps to protect the salami and prevents the unwanted growth of harmful bacteria on the surface of your salami. The mold also allows the salami to age longer without the casings drying out. Penicillium Nalgiovense and P. Salamii are the common mold strains found on our products. Typically when peeling the casing off our products, the mold is completely removed. Regardless, this mold is edible. It is the same mold found in bleu cheese and Roquefort cheese.
It should be noted that most of our salami do not have mold upon delivery since we wipe it off, and seal within a nitrogen flushed package.
Our casings are made out of a blend of silk, cotton, and collagen. It should be noted that they are not edible, but are all-natural. Please remove the casing prior to eating. These casings allow for an easier peel and are more hygienic than natural casings.
Our salami are certified as fully shelf-stable products. This means, you may leave our salami on the counter and slice into it as you wish. Only peel away enough casing to expose the amount of salami you wish to slice. The salami should keep for about 2 weeks after opening.
We are required by the USDA to apply "refrigerate after opening." If you do wish to refrigerate your salami, you can wrap the salami in its original packaging and place it in the refrigerator. If you did not keep the packaging, we'd recommend the use of cheese paper, Tupperware, and/or plastic wrap. Please note that the salami will get hard faster if stored in the refrigerator.
Our pork comes from certified free to roam Duroc and Berkshires in Pennsylvania and Iowa. No antibiotics ever and 100% vegetarian fed. Although not considered organic, our hogs come from family owned farms who practice in these methods.
Our Wagyu beef comes from Texas. The beef actually arrives to us Halal certified. We are not a Halal certified facility and our ingredients involve wine, therefore we cannot consider our beef salumi Halal.
Our Duck comes from Hudson Valley. Raised cage free in open barns and on a vegetarian grain fed diet. No antibiotics or growth hormones ever.
Our salami are nitrate/nitrite free, except for those occurring naturally in our Trapani Sicilian Sea Salt and Celery powder.
Uncured is a term the USDA requires for meat that is cured using natural nitrates and nitrites. Our salami is considered uncured, since we use organic celery powder instead of curing salt.
No, we do not have any garlic, onion, or allium in our facility.
