When a recipe does not work well or tastes mediocre, you are very honest about it. Your authenticity is spectacular, and it is why your channel is my new favorite cooking channel.

Brother I live in Thailand as well but in Thailand my butcher has very fresh meat he kills 3am i get my meat 5 am in a refrigerated truck but I see there are markets and markets don’t know about you I am stuck in Sydney for over one year now unable to go home in Thailand because of the covid take good care of yourself I wish you health peace and good fortune hope Italia wins the European grand final Avanti la azzurra 🇮🇹🇮🇹👋🇹🇭🇨🇷🇦🇺🇦🇺
My English isnt perfect, or spectactular and I was born in Canada. The ingredients are available where I live without being as expensive as finished made.. and now I can eat the food I like! When I can speak Italian as well as you can, Ill stop watching your YT video/recipes! Great content! Thank you for your spectatcular videos
i already tried this process here in the philippines and the result is very satisfactory. tastes like the salami being sent to me from italy. i cured the meat inside the ref.
I made this one and can honestly say as a lover of food, and a fierce self critic, this recipe delivers on all levels. The fat content is more forgiving than other lean recipes which is good for beginners like myself. The wine gives it a slight tart acidity which is just divine. This is a real winning recipe. Bellissimo. Thank you for sharing.
hey ! Your videos have enriched my life! My s/o has a mini fridge filled with salami that is curing. He made 3 batches in a week and I can't wait to try them. Everyday I walk by the frig with a glass door and stare at the salami as it cures. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato the first batch should be ready in about 1.5 more weeks. It's getting the white mold on it and it looks really good and smells really good ... he added some extra things in the batches that weren't in your recipe like garlic powder and chili flakes in one. He likes to be more daring and creative than I do. Do you think it'll be alright ?
I think you speak English wonderfully. I lived in Sicily for 5 years while in the US Navy. Most of my Italian friends were no where near as proficient as you in English, and I was horrible speaking Italian. It didn't matter. So many great memories. Thank you for the recipes and memories of better days. How about just one more Sicilian/Calabrese style Salami? I'm starting my first Sopressatta tomorrow. Grazie!
Andrea, I like the fact that you did not hide the trouble with the first attempt at making the sausage. That shows us what can sometimes happen. I am really liking your videos.
Love your channel and trying this recipe. Bloody funny when you said your first salami smelled like a dead dog. I've tried most of your other recipes and rate them all as spectacular. Keep up the great work
this is a really informative and simple bit of education, I have just discovered your channel and my wife and i love it....briliant work and thank you!
LOL, they are so cute. They look like sweet potatoes. Really love your videos. The believe the two words you were groping for are "food grinder" which is used for chopping/grinding/mincing up of lots of things including meat. The other word "casing(s)" for what the sausage is stuffed into. For someone whose first language isn't English I think you have a great vocabulary and do a fantastic job of expressing yourself clearly. I never have any problem understanding what you are trying to teach us. I wish my Spanish was a tenth as good.
I am a subscriber and have made my first Cacciatorini and am delighted! I dried them for 17 days and they are "spectacular". Now, I want to make more and I am wondering if I can double the recipe? Should it come out the same? Also, I have a grinder but am wondering if I will like the texture. What do you think about grinding the meat and cutting the belly fat by hand to keep the larger pieces in the sausage? Does red or white wine make a difference? Sorry for so many questions and thank you thank you for your videos.
Yes 👍🏼 you can double the quantity Yes 👍🏼 grind the meat and cut the fat by hand Better red wine Sorry if I reply so late but I found the comment now 😩
I made your Italian Dried Sausage from your video that you posted back in Jan. It's been in the fridge for 2.5 weeks now and I'm excited to try it in another week or two. I really like the idea of the garlic infused wine in this recipe and look forward to trying it next! Thanks for the recipe!
Great videos on how to make great food! Here in Norway Italian produce is super expensive. Now I will make it myself :) Smoker, grinder and sausage stuffer are ready!
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato That is great. I will watch all the other videos till then. I found your videos today, so I have a lot to watch :) With home office it is very easy to combine both vatching videos with one eye, to listen and to follow up cooking that demands care during the day. This will be the new thing in addition to sourdough bread. The family loves great food. Porchetta will be one of the first I will try. I used to have it in Ai Tre Scalini every in Via Panisperna in Rome every winter some years ago, with great Italian wine :) I hope they survive the pandemic... Next time in Italy, Torino and why not Carmagnola :) My wife drives while I can enjoy a beer. The good thing about not having a drivers lisence ;)
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato I used to visit Siracusa in the 80s and in 2002. That is my main experience with the southern citchen. Tonight Octopus Linguine here from Gennaro Contaldo. I miss Italy. Let´s keep in touch! When in Rome pop by Ai Tre Scalini. I used to know those working there in the 2000s, since it was my hangout place. The nice thing was that most tourists did not enter, because it was full of happy italians - noisy ;) Maybe different now. I have not been there since 2016. www.aitrescalini.org/en/
Fantastic videos, and thank you for showing the mistakes as well, it absolutely helps us beginners understand the sometimes things may go wrong and this is how to fix them!
Thank you very much for sharing I love your tips and how honest you are, if you never showed the mold I would have panicked thinking I had to throw it all out LOL now i know its all okay unless green or black.... I have watched a few of your videos, and I am excited to try a few of them.... I have already brought my meat and I have my pepper sauce already to make the sopressatta one.. it is cold in Australia here at the moment so its the time to start...... I will prepare following your instructions, fingers crossed my turns out like yours.... Muchas Gracias x ps in Australia most butchers will mince the meat if asked nicely
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato Thank you for the reply I was going to post a picture but cant see how? I made 4 kgs 2 weeks ago one lot cacciatorina and some sompresso, i could not find the sausage attachment to my machine so it was all done by hand :-( i was so excited and when i started to hang them up when i came back some had fallen to the floor :-( so the meat i salvaged (still in the casing) made a beautiful pasta.... so I learnt a few things for next time, I must leave more skin on the end to tie the sausage, dont put so many on one string and to put more filling in..... the skin on some of the salamis 2 weeks later has dropped so no longer a full sausage... but it all seems to be drying well and they are all starting to look like salami they have also shrunk a bit. :-) I think I made another mistake half way thru and started to twist and then tie so I assume that is a no no (seemed like a good idea at the time) and next year i will do one lot on string all the same size... I started off really well then my brain said il make a small one and a bigger one :-) till the next day I thought that is no good different drying times so next time il do one lot small then the next longer etc.... once again thank you so much your cooking makes my mouth water .. I will share your link with a group here in Australia because when i asked for help no one wanted to provide me a recipe they just prefer to show pictures of what they made and I know others like myself will appreciate your videos Muchas Gracias x PS I will be back once I cut the salami to tell you how amazing it is or find out what i did wrong... now its time for me to do your panchetta x
I also just looove this man!!! I'll be trying this tomorrow, just want to see if I can get a decent piece of loin and belly at our local butchery. Thank you for your recipes and tips. Bless you 🙏
omg I almost died laughing when that sausage went flying into the trash can. “It smells like a dead dog “ he said 😂 I felt like had to subscribe only because of that! Where else will I find such a brutal honesty!? I’ll have to try it with the fresh pork and some meat grinder as there’s no way I am cutting that pork for 2 hours!
This is how we make the romanian sosege in winter before the Christmas when we cut the pigs, but we all use the meat grinder and sausage machine for over 5 decades. We make several kinds of delis and then smoke them and eat them the rest of the year including prosciutto.
Brill. Just discovered your stuff and it's great. No more factory made crap for me. Already ordered the sausage casings to create tasty Italian good cured meats as made in the Days of Old. Keep it up Brother. Your stuff is Magic.
Amazing! I also made my own sausage maker with a 50ml syringe. I sawed the bottom part off. And used a dumpling rolling pin to push the chopped meat through. I made a Filipino sausage called Longannisa 😁 I am keen to try this recipe. Greetings from South Africa 😁
Thank you for this video! For me as a beginner is very important to know when I can make a mistake, how meat should smell, what should I avoid etc. Talking about mistakes is absolutely necessary! Thank you!
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato I tried your Cured Pork Loin and it was "spectacular". Really good! I'm waiting for more recipes! ........I'm very interested in Italian Mortadella :)
I ordered the gut , rennet and cheese cloth tonight. First cheese with mold scrapings is in the fridge, a lot of curd as I used 5% fat milk, smells like cheese.....before maturation. Fantastico.
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato The cheese is coated with the white mould now, tastes fine, another week or two will be better. Tonight I make the CACCIATORINI 1kg. Wish me luck!
I've made your cacciatorini today. Can't wait! Thank you so much for the very interesting channel. One question: I see you don't add any nitrate/nitrite to your meats. I thought that was required when curing sausage. Just want to be sure I'm not missing anything. Keep up the great videos.
I made this last week as well as the Soppressata recipe. Second time making it. It's really good. I followed the recipe exactly. I used a Cabernet. And, I made the pieces longer. Mmmm.
@@danterry5882 About 12-14hr. I didn't time it perfectly. Thanks for the reply, because you just reminded me that I need to order casings. I'm making it again with my girlfriend, as well as capicola (recipe from a different channel using collagen sheets), and maybe the lamb prosciutto.
@@MrMolecularscientist thank you. I just left mine out at 72 degrees for about 11 hrs. Then put in fridge that’s 54 with 91% humidity. I’m thinking this should done ok? 🤷🏻♂️
Excellent video my friend! I'm going to give this a try tomorrow. If it works out well, I might try doing kangaroo/pork fat salami since I'm down here in Australia! Thanks again.
I love this mate!Your accent is brilliantly .No worries I speak English with Hungarian accent .I just learning curing ,dry aging techniques , I like something simple and nice .Fine dining isn't for me .II am a Chef though . Not gonna look down 21st century too modern , sometimes over complicated things .My vision is , you can live in any country , never forget your traditions . If you do one day the next generation will eat only processed useless , tasteless , and really harmful "food".We don't want it ,do we? So well done , I am happy to follow your channel .
Thanks Tibor for your support 😀. Perfect 👍 if you like and think that my videos are helping the new generation, please share the videos with your friends 😉 especially with the young ones . Thanks again
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato since you didn't use a cure, how long will it last in the fridge once cut? and at what temp does it need to be refrigerated during the drying process?
You are my favourite TH-cam channel. Living in Australia now it’s hard to find really good authentic Italian ingredients so I’ve started to make my own. Thank you. Have you done a salami with fennel yet?? 😉👍🏻
@@prayeranon2631 if you have room for an extra fridge even one of the small cube refrigerators that would be perfect. Turn the temperature on the refrigerator the lowest it goes. Put in a tiny fan they have them on Amazon. This is for airflow which is important. And The smallest humidifier you can find. My fridge stays at around 54° with 60 to 70% humidity. I replaced one of the shelves with a wooden board that has a dozen hooks. In 2 to 3 weeks I have the best sopressata for less than two dollars a pound. My grandparents would be proud.
I just made the caciatorini and it looks right but there are two things I don't understand. First is how I get the white mould. I wrapped string around a sausage I have that has the mould and then tied it in when I tied the sausage. Is there a better way ? Should that work? Also, I am curious about how much is half a glass and what kind of wine. I used Pino Grigio. Jackoloco
cuoredicioccolato Yes, I shared with many. I acquired a sausage machine because of your videos 👏🏻I’m going to be making sausages. Please keep up your love of food. We enjoy all your videos , they are fantastic !
I make these using pork shoulder and have more control over the amount of fat included. I cure these in the cold cellar during the months of January and February, weather permitting. I’ve never cured them in the fridge as I make large amounts. It’s best to squeeze all excess water from casings as this will reduce curing time.
I just learned about your videos on Facebook! Love how you stuffed the sausage. It's a practical idea because many do not have the machine to do this. Can I freeze the cacciatorini when it has dried?
@cuoredicioccolato I've seen other salami videos where there the meat is fermented, and cure #2 (+ salt) is used. Can you explain why you can use only salt? Thank you!
Big fan of your channel!!! I've tried most of your meat recipes and am very happy with the results! Great job! Keep it up! Quick question though, most of your cured meat recipes require 3% of salt or more. Why did you use only 2.4%? Is it because of the addition of wine? Thanks in advance.
Thanks 😊 please have a look on my special campaign to buy the right equipment to improve my videos: bit.ly/37dI1hy I think that with 3% it will be to salty. The wine help a lot 😋👍
Hello I love all your videos. I would like to know when you have the salami in the fridge how often should you check it and when you check the salami do you feel it to see if it’s firm and if it’s firm in about 2 weeks does it mean it ready. Thank you
Yes usually when firm meets that they are ready 😉 but you can wait more than 2 weeks. If they are to hard you can close them in container and open it few hours every other day
Hello sorry to bother you. But my salami has been in the fridge for 3 weeks now but I realized that the fridge is too cold I checked the salami and it’s soft . It smells good I tasted it and it tasted good so what I would like to know is if the fridge is too cold does it mean it has to stay longer or the salami will not be good. So is it ok if it’s too cold or not. Thank You
this is great, thx for sharing. Any reason why you leave 8 hours at room temperature? to speed up bacteria activity? And, do you control humidity or temperature in your temperature or you think that is not really necessary? thx
Thanks for the videos. I have my salami hanging in a cold shed. They have been there for about 10 days and have white and green mould forming, should I be concerned?
Great video, at time 6:05 I see a plate of what looks like the pork fat. Did you add this to the bowl off screen or is this skin from the belly that you discard? Also, did you add the 700 ml water to the pork mixture or is it just for soaking the "Gut"?

I made this one and can honestly say as a lover of food, and a fierce self critic, this recipe delivers on all levels.

I've made your cacciatorini today. Can't wait! Thank you so much for the very interesting channel. One question: I see you don't add any nitrate/nitrite to your meats. I thought that was required when curing sausage. Just want to be sure I'm not missing anything. Keep up the great videos.
Spectacular 🥳 keep us updated 🤩
Yes 👍🏼 I personally used only sea salt but if you know how to use nitrite, you can use it 🙂
I’ve watched a few videos now and the arm windmill is brilliant. The recipes are very good and I’m going to try a few well done mate.
😂😁🤭 thanks 😀 please share the videos with your friends 😉
I’ve watched three videos in a row about curing meat. Looks delicious.
Thanks 😊
Great video, thanks. Caccitore sausage is $49.99 a kilo at the supermarket. My consumption levels are getting expensive. I will be trying this!
😱 let us know
Excellent presentation!!! Thank you so much!! GOD BLESS 👏👏👏
Thanks
I love your channel , you seem to do things simply beautifully . Just wanna ask what temperature is the fridge on for curing ..
Thanks ☺️
4 or 5 *C degrees but the best temperature is 10*C
Good for you! It's always an experiment and they don't always turn out. You rock the kitchen, dude!
😂👍🏼 thanks
Hello Andrea,I will be trying this recipe . Thank you for everything ❤
Keep us updated 😉👍🏼
I made this last week as well as the Soppressata recipe. Second time making it. It's really good. I followed the recipe exactly. I used a Cabernet. And, I made the pieces longer. Mmmm.
Bravo 👍🏼 thanks for sharing your experience
Did you leave it at room temp for 8 hrs or 24hrs??? Thanks!!
@@danterry5882 About 12-14hr. I didn't time it perfectly. Thanks for the reply, because you just reminded me that I need to order casings. I'm making it again with my girlfriend, as well as capicola (recipe from a different channel using collagen sheets), and maybe the lamb prosciutto.
@@danterry5882 about 12-14 hours. I did not keep exact track of time.
@@MrMolecularscientist thank you. I just left mine out at 72 degrees for about 11 hrs. Then put in fridge that’s 54 with 91% humidity. I’m thinking this should done ok? 🤷🏻♂️

😂👍🏼 grazie 😉
Hi i almost spent the whole day watching your videos really great job, and at what temperature you keep them in fridge for 2 weeks
Thanks 😊 I use the fridge at the minimum power I don't know the temperature 😬 but the best one is 10*C
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato thanks
Bongiorno! Can you use a lower temperature to cure the meat? For example 4.4 degrees C? Grazie!
Yes 👍🏼 you can try
It's white wine with the garlic in it yes. Love the channel
Yes 👍🏼 you can use white wine
I love this mate!Your accent is brilliantly .No worries I speak English with Hungarian accent .I just learning curing ,dry aging techniques , I like something simple and nice .Fine dining isn't for me .II am a Chef though . Not gonna look down 21st century too modern , sometimes over complicated things .My vision is , you can live in any country , never forget your traditions . If you do one day the next generation will eat only processed useless , tasteless , and really harmful "food".We don't want it ,do we? So well done , I am happy to follow your channel .
Thanks Tibor for your support 😀. Perfect 👍 if you like and think that my videos are helping the new generation, please share the videos with your friends 😉 especially with the young ones .
Thanks again
I freaking love this dude!!!!!!! hahaaha "Spectacula" Great channel. I will be trying this with wild boar meat
That ought to taste awesome!!
Let us know 👍
😋
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato since you didn't use a cure, how long will it last in the fridge once cut? and at what temp does it need to be refrigerated during the drying process?
@@tonyfc8809 salt is the cure... it's traditional. It can be cured without nitrates.
I like the way he waves his hand when he likes the taste
😂
Hm, delicious! I never knew how easy it was to make salame. Could I use fennel seeds? Or can you recommend any other seasoning?
Yes fennel seeds are common in Italy too but I personally prefer only with black pepper
You are my favourite TH-cam channel. Living in Australia now it’s hard to find really good authentic Italian ingredients so I’ve started to make my own. Thank you.
Have you done a salami with fennel yet?? 😉👍🏻
🥳 thanks for your support 🤩
Not yet 😬 sorry
Hi Cuore, today was 1st tasting day of the Cacciatorini. I have to say that this is one of the best I have tasted.
Grazzie Mille, George
😉👍🏼 grazie a te 🤪
How do you take the mold out? just clean with some cloth or napkin? Thank you nice videos!!
Yes 👍🏼 but if it’s white you can keep it
BRAVOSSIMO well done also I like your humble style 👍
👍🏼😉😂 thanks 😊 please share the videos with your friends and family 🤪
Wow thank you for showing the recipes and also Show the fails 👍👍👍 greetings from austria 🇦🇹 did you only use seasalt?
😉 yes 👍🏼 sea salt and wine preserve the food
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato in austria we use different Salt to make Speck for the meat getting Red. I will try to make it like you.
I love this channel
Thanks 😊 please share the videos with your friends and family
Just tried your recipe.
Now hanging in the fridge . I will let you know how it turns out. 👍 thank you 😄
How was it??
SpellboundTonight the fridge dried them out . The flavour was good but they should be hung in a cellar .
@@prayeranon2631 if you have room for an extra fridge even one of the small cube refrigerators that would be perfect. Turn the temperature on the refrigerator the lowest it goes. Put in a tiny fan they have them on Amazon. This is for airflow which is important. And The smallest humidifier you can find. My fridge stays at around 54° with 60 to 70% humidity. I replaced one of the shelves with a wooden board that has a dozen hooks. In 2 to 3 weeks I have the best sopressata for less than two dollars a pound. My grandparents would be proud.
Prayer Anon oh wow thanks.
kickn-aDead-cat thanks for the great info will give it a try .
I just made the caciatorini and it looks right but there are two things I don't understand. First is how I get the white mould. I wrapped string around a sausage I have that has the mould and then tied it in when I tied the sausage. Is there a better way ? Should that work? Also, I am curious about how much is half a glass and what kind of wine. I used Pino Grigio. Jackoloco
The mold can arrive from the place or from the skin, some people add it you can buy it online
You can use half of a classic glass for wine
Fantastic video, thank you 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks ☺️ please share this video with your friends 😉
cuoredicioccolato Yes, I shared with many. I acquired a sausage machine because of your videos 👏🏻I’m going to be making sausages. Please keep up your love of food. We enjoy all your videos , they are fantastic !
I make these using pork shoulder and have more control over the amount of fat included. I cure these in the cold cellar during the months of January and February, weather permitting. I’ve never cured them in the fridge as I make large amounts. It’s best to squeeze all excess water from casings as this will reduce curing time.
Thanks for the advice 👍🏼
I just learned about your videos on Facebook! Love how you stuffed the sausage. It's a practical idea because many do not have the machine to do this. Can I freeze the cacciatorini when it has dried?
Thanks 😊 better to vacuum them and keep in the fridge 😉
@cuoredicioccolato I've seen other salami videos where there the meat is fermented, and cure #2 (+ salt) is used. Can you explain why you can use only salt? Thank you!

Big fan of your channel!!! I've tried most of your meat recipes and am very happy with the results! Great job! Keep it up!
Quick question though, most of your cured meat recipes require 3% of salt or more. Why did you use only 2.4%? Is it because of the addition of wine? Thanks in advance.
Thanks 😊 please have a look on my special campaign to buy the right equipment to improve my videos: bit.ly/37dI1hy
I think that with 3% it will be to salty. The wine help a lot 😋👍
Love it! Thanks, I will try this recipe soon.
Starts off suavely with navy blue shirt and silk tie. Failed midway with a straightface but lower dressing standard. Re-emerged again spectacularly.
😂
Hello I love all your videos. I would like to know when you have the salami in the fridge how often should you check it and when you check the salami do you feel it to see if it’s firm and if it’s firm in about 2 weeks does it mean it ready. Thank you
Yes usually when firm meets that they are ready 😉 but you can wait more than 2 weeks. If they are to hard you can close them in container and open it few hours every other day
Ok thank you so much.
😉👍🏼
Hello sorry to bother you. But my salami has been in the fridge for 3 weeks now but I realized that the fridge is too cold I checked the salami and it’s soft . It smells good I tasted it and it tasted good so what I would like to know is if the fridge is too cold does it mean it has to stay longer or the salami will not be good. So is it ok if it’s too cold or not. Thank You
Yes 👍🏼 it is ok , all the fridge are different 😉 yes you have to wait until it’s not soft anymore but not too hard
Wow - Nice Chef!!!!!
this is great, thx for sharing. Any reason why you leave 8 hours at room temperature? to speed up bacteria activity? And, do you control humidity or temperature in your temperature or you think that is not really necessary? thx
Thanks
Yes it is necessary for a good salami
No but with my new fridge is a problem like you will see in this week video 😬
Thanks for the videos. I have my salami hanging in a cold shed. They have been there for about 10 days and have white and green mould forming, should I be concerned?
White is perfect 👌🏼 the important is to avoid the black one
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato Thanks
👍🏼😉
Great video, at time 6:05 I see a plate of what looks like the pork fat. Did you add this to the bowl off screen or is this skin from the belly that you discard? Also, did you add the 700 ml water to the pork mixture or is it just for soaking the "Gut"?
The quantity of fat and meat are mentioned in the video 😉
Yes 👍🏼 the water is only for soaking the gut
Very beautiful Cacciatorini Salami 👍
Thanks 🤩
Great man, perfect explanation. Unfortunately, there are no plastic bottles with a long neck available in Southern Africa
You can use a funnel 😉
You make all this to become so simple! I will do it for sure!
