The Finocchiona
Its story..
Its noble origins date back to the Middle Ages, rooted in the prestigious and fascinating Chianti region, where the ingenuity and wisdom of local butchers began to use wild fennel, spice easily available and less expensive than pepper from India.
Many quotes from Nicolo’ Machiavelli certify its historical roots and the traditional use of the native spice, capable to give it its unique flavor.

Particular signs
Finocchiona is today the only tuscan salami with IPG (PGI).
…how is made, let’s go backstage
The production of Finocchiona is made with Italian meats: 60% from shoulder and 40% from pancetta, anatomical part with fat.
Steps of production are similar to Salame Toscano,the only difference is the addition of fennel to other spices and the duration of seasoning which can be inferior.
For bagging we use natural gut or collagenous gut.
