INFORMATION
RUFFIANA DI SUINO GRIGIO DEL CASENTINO, is obtained by carefully selecting prime cuts including shoulder meat.
Once the meats are chosen, they are seasoned with Cervia salt, pepper, and then ground with medium grain.
Fennel in seed and flower is also added.
The meats are then stuffed into natural casings about 10/12 cm in diameter and placed for curing.
Ruffiana, while following the Tuscan tradition, adds a delicate flavor through the use of fennel blossom.
