Foustman’s Salami is a family-owned business specializing in creating unique styles and flavors of artisanal uncured dry salami.
Fun fact: San Francisco is known as the salami capital of the United States due to its cool and humid climate, which is ideal for dry curing meat. In the late 1800s, Italian immigrants brought their family's salami-making tradition to the Bay Area, where they found the perfect conditions for creating their beloved salumi. However, these salami makers had to fight for the right to call their salami "Italian Salami" and to protect their traditional curing methods.
Our old-world style, Italian dry salami is coated in an organic white mold as part of the dry-curing, preservative process. Like you would find in some fine cheeses, this mold is harmless and contributes to the unique flavor profile of our salami.
To create this delightfully spicy pork masterpiece, we infuse our naturally dry-cured pork salami with red chili flakes and sweet sherry wine. This medium-hot salami has just the right touch of heat to balance the richness of the salami and liven up each bite. Try this with a crisp white wine or cold beer.
These salamis are shelf stable and do not need to be refrigerated until after opening. Perfect for camping, hiking, picnics or traveling. We use a fibrous casing, which is made from plant cellulose and should be removed before eating.
Our Italian Dry Salami is naturally cured, using traditional techniques that have been passed down from the Old Country and kept alive by passionate salumists in the San Francisco Bay Area.
