Columbus Salame Company Fiore Italian Dry Salame 2lb Stick
One of the secrets to Columbus premium salame is the fiore. Fiore, or bloom, is what Italian salumieri use to refer to the soft white coating of aromatic mold that protects the salame from excessive drying in the curing process while at the same time enhacning its flavor. San Francisco's mild climate and relative humidity are similar to that of Tuscany -- ideal for the growth of fiore, and ideal, therefore, for the production of quality salame. Columbus Salame, When the Italian-born founders of Columbus Salame came to America in 1917, they brought their authentic Italian recipes with them. Soon they opened their doors in San Francisco and began crafting and selling their artisan salame. Today, Columbus has become one of the most respected producers of fine foods in the country. They're still a family owned business. And they're still as crazy about making the kinds of premium salame people love. ***Warm Weather Shipping Warning*** We strongly recommend using an expedited shipping method for Columbus Salame items.
