Product Details
Description
Nduja is a spreadable, spicy Italian salami that delivers rich, savoury flavour with a bold, fiery kick. Producers mince high-quality pork and blend it with hot chilli peppers for intense, smoky heat. Its soft, creamy texture makes it perfect for spreading or adding to your favourite dishes. Use it to elevate pizza, pasta, sandwiches, or simply enjoy it on warm bread.
History and production
Nduja originates from Calabria, a southern Italian region known for bold, rustic food. Local artisans craft it using select cuts of pork and fiery Calabrian chillies. They cure it slowly to build deep, complex flavour while keeping the signature soft texture. Calabrians have long celebrated Nduja, and now food lovers across the world do too.
Tasting notes
Nduja delivers a smoky, spicy taste with a rich pork base that’s full of character. The chilli heat hits quickly but balances beautifully with the meat’s natural richness. Its creamy consistency makes it easy to spread on warm bread or mix into sauces. It’s also excellent on pizza, pasta, or stirred into risottos. The heat lingers pleasantly, making each bite satisfying and bold.
Pairings
Nduja is fantastic spread on crusty bread or crackers, paired with a mild cheese like mozzarella, or used as a topping on pizza for an extra kick. It also complements pasta dishes, stews, and even grilled vegetables, adding depth and flavour. For an ideal drink pairing, try it with a glass of robust red wine, such as a full-bodied Chianti or Tempranillo.
