Cured this capicola in February. It's been drying for 3 1/2 months.

Nick, that is outstanding. And the taste is? Just wondering, knowing I will never get to try it for myself. CF :D

I would only imagine a slight salty, earthy taste with a touch of pepper? The fat would no doubt melt on your tongue, and the meat would do pretty close to the same..


Would I be inaccurate here atcNick?

I think some of the Italian style meats are cured with a bit of fennel seed, least I think that is what I taste in some pancetta.

Definitely. Fennel seed is used in most, if not all Italian sausage/cured goods. Some a bit more than others.
