Bresaola

What is Bresaola?

Bresaola is a type of air-dried, lightly salted Italian cured beef that has been aged for several months. The curing process produces a dark red meat that is almost purple in color. Made from the top round near the leg of the cow, bresaola meat is lean and tender with a sweet, mild flavor.

How to Eat Bresaola

Because of its delicate flavor and tender texture, beef bresaola is often enjoyed as part of an antipasto platter. To enhance the taste, drizzle with a mixture of extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, and black pepper. Serve with crusty bread for a simple yet satisfying bite. For a healthy Italian salad, toss together Bresaola, spicy arugula, and lemon juice. To finish, garnish with black pepper and a generous amount of thin Pecorino Romano shavings.
