The Salumificio Ducale, one of the best producers of traditional Parmesan cured meats, offers us this delicacy known as Fiocchetto di Prosciutto.

This product is considered the younger brother of culatello, although it is still considered a delicacy. The two cured meats are processed in the same way, and the difference lies more in their size than in their equally delicate flavor. While the leanest and most muscular part of the pork leg is chosen for fiocchetto, the largest part is used for culatello.

As with culatello, processing is carried out using traditional methods, with salting and tying done by hand.

Ruby in color, lean and sweet on the palate, the fiocchetto it is aged for over 6 months together with culatello, in the same humid cellars that give our cured meats the unmistakable flavors of the Emilian land.
