Mortadella

$105.00 Regular Price

A classic Italian cold cut flecked with California pistachios, black peppercorns and hand-cut fatback, nuanced with the warm flavor of baking spices. The king of sausage, its big brutish stump is quickly sliced into an airy, pink-silk handkerchief, packed with flavor and fat. 

A greasy mortadella is a sad mortadella, and a great mortadella makes you thirsty for Lambrusco. Make a mortadella sandwich with white bread, raw onion and mayo, like when you were young, and wonder why baloney got such a bad name. 

Approx. 3-4 lbs, unsliced.

How to enjoy it

A greasy mortadella is a sad mortadella, and a great mortadella makes you thirsty for Lambrusco. Make a mortadella sandwich with white bread, raw onion and mayo, like when you were young, and wonder why baloney got such a bad name.

How it's made

Baloney, or bologna, is a meat emulsion - a stable puree of protein, fat, and water with a completely uniform color and texture. Here, lean meat is pretty much pulverized to extract as much myosin as possible (myosin is the protein that encases fat particles, keeping the fat from leaking out of a sausage product).

At OP, we use an industrial bowl chopper to first grind up the lean meat, developing the myosin, and then we chop in the fat. It's similar to making mayonnaise in a food processor, where you start with the egg yolk and dribble in the oil to make an emulsion.
