A historic and very ancient breed, the Nebrodi black pig, from which our Sicilian Black Pig Salami , and its Sicilian production were also known in Rome two centuries before the coming of Christ.

This type of farming, traditional and primitive, has continued through the centuries and is still practiced today, especially in the Nebrodi and Madonie mountains!

Why Nebrodi Black Pig Cured Meats are they that good?

Let's find out more about Sicilian Black Pig Salami , this Sicilian specialty:

Small in size and with a dark coat, the Nebrodi black pig is a very ancient native breed, very similar to that of the wild boar, both in features and habits, and has little or nothing tame or domestic about it.

These animals feed on chestnuts and acorns , live in the wild or semi-wild state , in a habitat made up of beeches, centuries-old oaks and large woods, dense with vegetation, rich in lakes, districts, streams and watering holes.

The quality of Sicilian Black Pig Salami , thanks to the producers who averted its extinction in the 1990s (the breed was considered unprofitable given its small size), is unsurpassed .

But why? Thanks to outdoor breeding and to a natural diet , the meats have wild aromas that recall a hazelnut fragrance.

All the sausages , including the fellata, the capocollo and the bacon, our Sicilian black pig salami , they are strictly produced in a clean manner, without chemical subterfuge but with the help of the most natural , ancient and powerful preservative that exists: salt .

The products obtained, therefore, are typical of excellence, which is achieved thanks to the optimal synthesis, not reproducible elsewhere, of the environment, breeding and processing techniques, all elements that make Sicilian Black Pig Salami unique and one of the largest biodiversity in Italy.

The " marbling " of the meat, i.e. the presence of abundant noble fat , guarantees flavour and softness .

Origin

The Sicilian black pig has been present in Sicily for centuries, with evidence dating back to the Greek and Carthaginian periods and is part of what was once defined as the "indigenous Sicilian" breed .

According to some scholars, it would in fact derive from an indigenous stock, while for others, its formation would not be unrelated to "Neapolitan" subjects, or it would even descend from the "Iberian type of Sanson".

The wild breeding of black pigs, very widespread in the Middle Ages, suffered a decline during the Arab domination (the Arabs prohibited the consumption of pork) which however, fortunately, has managed to reach the present day : today, several ancient breeds traceable to this pig have disappeared, while others have changed over time to constitute a single breed with defined characteristics and, with the gradual disappearance of the wooded areas, the breeding of the Sicilian Blacks is concentrated in the more internal areas, especially in the areas of Nebrodi Mountains , where there are large woods.
