The strolghino this is the most fashionable of the Parma salamis: small in size, it is perfect for aperitifs with friends. The name of this cured meat derives from the term strolga, meaning witch or fortune teller in the Parmesan dialect. Tradition has it that strolghino was produced to predict the curing process of larger cured meats, especially culatello.

It is made by trimming the lean, prized parts of the pig's leg; it is minced with salt and pepper and then stuffed into a natural casing, tied at the end with string to facilitate drying and maturation. It is aged for about 20 days.

Strolghino is perfect at any time, and one slice leads to another. We recommend cutting thick, round slices. It is a must on a platter of Parma cured meats, with crostini, bread, and typical local cheeses, such as Parmigiano Reggiano. In Parma, it is also used to prepare excellent risottos.
