Two important meetings in Germany for the organic delicatessen of the PrimaVera line by Salumificio Pedrazzoli: at BioWest in Düsseldorf and at BioOst in Berlin.

The fair in Düsseldorf has recently taken place (on the 17^th of April) and we are ready for the next one in Berlin, on Saturday the 24^th of April. Two important events for the experts of the organic sector in a country, Germany, that represents the largest market of the EU in terms of organic products.

A unique showcase to present our Italian excellences, the organic delicatessen of the PrimaVera line by Pedrazzoli, which are made of solely organic meat of our Italian pigs that are bred in our free-range farms, where the well-being of animals is put at the first place. The organic delicatessen of Salumificio Pedrazzoli put together the unique taste of the Italian butchery tradition and the respect for the environment and the well-being of animals. The respect for the needs of animals and the promotion of well-being criteria, together with the 100% eco-friendly environment (without any source of pollution) that hosts the pigs  are the prerequisites for the creation of good and genuine product. The organic breeding farms owned by Pedrazzoli have enough space that allows the animals to move freely. In fact, it is proportional to the number of head. Moreover, they are equipped with comfortable places, made of natural materials, where the animals can recover.

Organic breeding includes also other types of care concerning the animals’ well-being. Moreover, it respects the natural growth rhythm of animals, avoiding the use of any hormones/growth promoters.

BioOst and BioWest are two important fairs that take place in Germany and, together with BioSüd and BioNord, they host about 13000 visitors every year. More than one hundred exhibitors take part to these fairs, among them there are breeders, manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers of the organic sector. In whole, the four fairs cover different areas of Germany, i. e. Berlin, Düsseldorf, Augsburg and Hannover. The last two take place respectively on the 25^th of September and the 9^th of October.

Visit our stand at BioOst in Berlin on the 24^th of April, we are in the hall 25-C14.

Together with the council member of Lombardy, Gianni Fava, three enterprises  from Mantua at Sial in Canada.

Salumificio Pedrazzoli participated from the 13^th to the 15^th of April together with the regional council member for agriculture, Gianni Fava, and 13 enterprises from Lombardy at  Sial, the international food fair of Montreal in Canada.

The fair, which was created in 2001, celebrates its 13^th edition and it represents one of the most important occasions in North America to meet the experts of the food sector. Sial Canada is an exclusive event that takes place in 7 different countries (France, Brasil, Canada, China, Arab Emirates, Indonesia, Philippines), in four continents, with a total number of exhibitors of 9.300, who come from more than 100 countries across the world, and more than 216.000 visitors.

The last edition of Sial in Toronto registered +11% in terms of exhibitors (831 exhibitors) that came from 65 countries and more than 13.000 visitors that took part to the three days of the fair (+13% in comparison to the 2013 edition). Sixteen countries participating.

The Italian pavillon hosted 28 stands, 13 of which belonged to the enterprises of Lombardy.

Among them, there were three enterprises from Mantua: Salumificio Pedrazzoli, Acetificio Mengazzoli and the Consortium of Mantuan Wines.

For us, it was a really good occasion to present our Excellence products, all made with 100% Italian pig’s meat coming from our breeding farms. The Q+ line that represents our Excellence was the absolute protagonist because it expresses the emotions of our butchery tradition. Passion and tradition, these are the main ingredients that are necessary to create the products of Italian Excellence.

Salame Ettore is a unique salami of the organic line Primavera by Pedrazzoli, which is produced with only organic meat of Italian pigs bred in free-range farms.

Over the years,  salami has been the protagonist of an important development in the Italian culinary tradition. Every region can boast various types of salami with different denominations, according to the area of production, the type of grain or the ingredients that it contains. From the most famous denominations, like “Salame Napoli” with a fine grain, “Milano” with a rice-sized grain, “Salame Ungherese” that is slightly smoked, to many regional specialties, like “Finocchiona Toscana”, “Soppressa Calabrese” or “Felino” from the province of Parma. And for Ettore’s production, Salumificio Pedrazzoli takes inspiration precisely from “Felino”.

Ettore is produced with first quality meat of pigs bred in our organic free-range farms. It is minced in medium-sized grain and it is filled into a natural bowel called “gentile”. The mixture of spices, with which the pig’s meat is flavoured, is made of salt, pepper (in whole grains or crushed). The process of filling is made carefully to avoid the creation of air pockets. Also,  seasoning is rigorously controlled because of the large size of this salami that has a high level of humidity to drain.  A proper time of seasoning (at least 45 days) allows the perfect mixing of the fat and the lean parts of the meat.

Long shape and a small diameter, tenderness and a delicate, sweet and fragrant taste are Ettore’s most particular features. It is cut rigorously with a knife and served in combination with hard-dough bread.

During the cut, the bowel should not be removed to allow the external scent to penetrate the product. To obtain larger slices, we suggest to cut it from the bottom to the top side, in an oblique direction.

Combine Ettore with a good glass of fresh Lambrusco or another Italian sparkling wine, like Prosecco di Valdobbiadene or Franciacorta Saten. It can also match perfectly with an organic artisan beer.
