Pavé Salami – Coarse-Grained Salami Variety

This variety is a coarse-grained salami made from pork and beef. The aging process for the spicy specialty from French-speaking Switzerland often takes up to six months. Due to the long air drying, liquid evaporates. This makes the salami particularly dry and lasts longer.

Taste

Use

Pavé salami is ideal as a fine bread topping. Their savory flavor comes into its own on a crispy baguette. Also a real treat in Mediterranean salads with tomatoes and olives or as an antipasti with pear wedges.

Store the sausage in a cool, dark, and dry place. Best packed in an airtight container in the fridge. It can be kept there for about 14 days.
