Salumeria Italiana is a small store, but it's packed with hundreds of products. Wonderful salumi from soppressatas to prosciuttos to cinghiale(wild boar) and all kinds of salamis. Delicious cheeses from the classic aged Parmigiano Reggiano to Crucolo to Moliterno al Tartufo to Robiola and dozens more. Olives, San Marzano DOP tomatoes, anchovies, capers, sea salt, breadsticks, rices, and much, much more.
We try to offer as much as possible in our online store, excluding a few products that are too perishable to ship. And we try to add new foods as soon as possible after they come into the store. We're always getting exciting new foods in -- and if our staff is excited about a new extra virgin olive oil, a special wine vinegar, or even a delicate olive oil soap, we want to share that excitement. And Goni, our manager who does most of the ordering, also tries to make sure your favorites are replenished regularly.
Recently, a distributor brought in La Bonta Campania Bufala Mozzarella DOP shipped frequently from Italy. Our staff members tasted it, and the verdict was unanimous: This was a cheese that we had to offer. Although it costs a little more, the delicacy of its flavor and its smooth texture make it worth the difference. A summer delight, this mozzarella pairs beautifully with sun-kissed tomatoes, a drizzle of super-premium extra virgin olive oil, a few leaves of basil. Iconic, simple and perfect for any occasion. This will be online soon -- in the meantime, just call 800-400-5916, and we can send it to you. Or come in to pick it up. We're eager to share our exciting find with you!!
We recently were privileged to tour the caves of Luigi Guffanti in Arona, Italy on Lake Maggiore. Here, Carlo Fiori and his sons age cheese purchased from small cheesemakers in Italy and France. Their skill in affinatore, or aging, is so prized that the Wall Street Journal just named Guffanti one of the 10 best cheese operations in the WORLD!!. We're happy for them, and so proud that we carry Luigi Guffanti cheeses.
