Description
Pio Tosini is a family owned and run company that was founded in 1905. With a strong emphasis on quality, they are meticulous in their attention to detail - from inspecting the hams they receive and refusing ones that are not up to standard, to doing their own in-house trimming at the end of the curing process.
The Pio Tosini prosciutti we offer are aged on the bone for a minimum of 20 months (the mandatory minimum is 400 days) which means that they develop a wonderful flavor. If you've travelled much to Italy, you may have noticed the majority of prosciutto sold is a bit more rounded in appearance rather than the longer, pressed variety. This is because the "legato" style of pressing is the defacto standard for most delis. The meat offers a bit more tenderness and perhaps more importantly even, the larger legs fit perfectly on the slicer!
