Event Overview

 


Guanciale, cured hog jowl, is one of the eight major cuts in Italian butchery and a great place to start for anyone with interest in at home curing. Join us at Salume Beddu where we'll take you through the curing process of guanciale and show you how to incorporate this finished product into a dish. You'll learn the process of curing, equipment, and length of time necessary to recreate guanciale at home, as well as sources for quality ingredients. You'll end the evening learning how to use this magical meat in a dish. We'll teach you how to master Bucatini all’Amatriciana, a must learn recipe in your pasta arsenal.

Provided you don't mind lame dad jokes you'll love learning from our head salumiere Mark Sanfilippo. Trained under the Batali/Silverton powerhouse at L.A.'s Pizzeria Mozza this man knows his way around a kitchen only slightly less than he knows his way around a hog. He's been creating, according to Forbes, the "best salami in the country" for the past six years at his humble South City salumeria, Salume Beddu. Let him teach you how to cut, grind, cure, and stuff, and certainly let him feed you.
