Trealy Monmouthshire Air Dried Beef Bresola, Whole approx 1kg

More familiarly known as bresaola, this Monmouth Air-Dried Spiced Beef forms just a small part of a beef curing tradition which stretches across the globe. The preservation of beef, in similar ways, is as familiar to the Indonesians as it is to the South Americans and the Spanish, where it is knwon as Cecina. Bresaola has its roots deep set in the Italian Alps, in the Lombardy region, taking its name from the Lombardi word bresada, meaning 'braised'. An extremely lean prodcut, this air-dried spiced beef is rubbed with herbs and spices before curing, which results in a delicate flavour which eats very well wih a variety of tastes and textures.
