Ventricina Teramana

Ventricina Teramana is a soft, spreadable sausage prepared around the Abruzzan city of Teramo. Made with fattier parts of pork, lard, garlic, rosemary, fennel seeds, peperoncini, orange zest, and salt, ventricina Teramana is either placed in natural casings or preserved in sterilized glass jars.

This flavorful sausage is best enjoyed spread on crusty bread, then shortly grilled - the ventricina-flavored bruschetta tastes even better when accompanied by a glass of local red wine such as Montepulciano d’Abruzzo.
