In Italian, It means all natural (Minimally processed, no artificial ingredients). We are introducing some of our popular Italian-style specialties under this banner as equally delicious options among our many other traditionally prepared delicacies. Each of these all-natural (Minimally processed, no artificial ingredients) selections is made with the same dedication to classic flavors and unparalleled excellence for which Citterio (chee-teh-ree-o) is world-renowned. As with all Citterio products, the distinctive quality, the traditionally Italian tastes and flavors are perfected through intentionally unhurried aging. Citterio specialties are widely acclaimed largely because our expert curing masters, the salumieri, concentrate strictly on bringing out the pure, honest flavors of properly aged premium meats. Made from the same cuts of pork as bacon but leaner and with more distinctive flavor, Panetta Citterio is not smoked; no water is added. This all-natural specialty is tightly rolled into a salame-like shape, delicately seasoned and traditionally prepared to develop the great flavor that's so popular with chefs. They find it ideal for flavoring sauces, soups or salads, for omelets or quiche or for layering on poultry or roasts. Its characteristic flavor is key to classic pasta Carbonara. Enjoy it, too, in an Italian BLT (arugula, avocado and sliced tomato). The world's most celebrated Italian specialty meats. Gluten free.
