The fiocco is ready! He may be Culatello's poor cousin, but he's still mighty tasty!

It's prosciutto-y with a little funk. I wonder if it's from the use of a beef bung as a casing...

thanks. It's no harder than other whole muscle cures, just takes a little learning and being careful to "harvest" the muscle from the whole leg!

Definitely recommend making it
