The Slinzega is a traditional product from Lombardy, a different version of the bresaola della Valtellina. The cut used to make this cured meat is the same one used for the bresaola; the only difference is its size, which is smaller for the slinzega. Another difference is the flavoured brine used for the massaging of the meat which takes place before the drying. This product, which shows a dark red colour, is completely lean and rich in proteins. Its flavour is characterized by a strong cured taste that comes from the herbs used for the salting. Easy to digest product.
