Bresaola

Bresaola della Valtellina is produced with salted and seasoned beef. It is rich in proteins, poor in fat and calories. Compared with many other types of cured meat, bresaola is very lean, as it is made from a single muscle and any outer fat is removed before curing. Bresaola is a bit like a lean prosciutto made with beef instead of pork and slightly reminiscent of pastrami in terms of flavor.
