Prosciutto, Pancetta and Capocollo Making Workshop
Butchery, prosciutto, pancetta, capocollo class
Come and join us for a curing class where you will delve into the world of whole leg muscle curing, in particular how to cure pork legs for prosciutto and how to make pancetta and capocollo.
You will see demonstrated the main steps of butchery and will learn the special conditions required to age and store whole legs and how to avoid faults in the meat by practising correct techniques.
We will show you the process of preparing the meat with salt and showing you the result of meat cuts we will prepare the day before for you. We will work together on the wrapping and netting the meat in the hands-on part of the class and analyse the last steps before the ageing.
Time and salt will do their part to produce meltingly delicious cured meats that will slice beautifully for your charcuterie board.
After this we will enjoy wine and our own charcuterie with bread and cheese.....Salute!
*Please note~ This is a workshop with both a demonstration and hands-on parts. We encourage you to roll your sleeves up, slice, salt and flavor so you will have the best learning experience possible. For health and safety reasons we will cure the meat in our cabinets and you will be more then welcome to visit us in store to try the products made on the day when the time comes. You don't have to prepare or bring anything, we will have everything ready for you!
