The product and process as described by La Quiercia:
"We make artisan salami using traditional dry curing. This is a millenia old method that involves salting and drying to preserve meat and then aging to develop flavor internally. The length of aging depends on the size of the piece of meat. We use no nitrates, nitrites or their vegetable derived substitutes. Because we use only 2 (pork and sea salt) or 3 (pork, sea salt, spices) ingredients, the quality of the meat we use very clearly expresses itself in your eating experience. And since the animals and the growers are our neighbors, we directly benefit from and appreciate the extra care and effort involved in humane and organic animal production."
"We do not buy any meat from confinement production systems or from animals fed subtherapeutic antibiotics to promote their growth. All of the pigs we use come from farms that offer the animals access to the out of doors, opportunity to root and to socialize, and room to move freely. They are all fed vegetarian, grain-based diets."
