ANECDOTES
Le famiglie contadine avevano la necessità di conservare la carne il più a lungo possibile. Lo si faceva seguendo tre modalità: salandola ed essiccandola, affumicandola e stagionandola, oppure mettendola in salamoia.
Peasant families needed to keep meat for as long as possible. It was done in three ways: by salting and drying it, by smoking it and seasoning it, or by putting it in brine.
