Capicola
Capicola, also known as coppa, is a traditional Italian cured meat made from the shoulder or neck of a pig. It’s seasoned with various spices, including black pepper, garlic, and sometimes red pepper, then cured or aged for several months. The result is a flavorful and tender meat with a rich, savory taste. Capicola is often sliced thin and enjoyed in sandwiches, on charcuterie boards, or as part of antipasto platters. Its unique flavor profile and texture make it a popular choice among deli meats and gourmet foods.
