The capital of good salami is in Norcia, where pork and wild boar sausages of the highest quality are produced (norcinerie). In any Umbrian restaurant you go, you will not find any that does not include, among its appetizers, some sneaky snacks and tastings of typical salami and cold cuts, so strong is the Umbrian tradition in this regard.
Already highly appreciated by the ancient Romans, Umbrian sausages enjoy undoubted international fame. In addition to the classic "homemade sausage" or "Prosciutto di Norcia IGP", we find various other products with an unusual name such as mule coioni or grandpa's balls.
