Hand-crafted Salami

Paul Bertolli is the founder and curemaster of Fra'Mani Handcrafted Salumi in Berkeley, California. His artisan salumi (the Italian word for salted, cured cuts of meat or sausages -- including salame and prosciutto) focuses on the complex nature of cured pork; the balance of fat, lean and salt, the coarseness of the grind, and how the variables of natural fermentation give each salame its distinct flavor.
