Hungary has good climatic conditions and is recognized as the best place to make salami.
There are many varieties of Hungarian salami, the most famous of which is the "Pick" brand winter salami from the southern city of Szeged. In addition to the production recipe handed down from 130 years ago, Peak also has modern production facilities and technical management. Throughout the production of salami in winter, the sausages are carefully supervised and cared for by expert technicians.
The pork used to make Pick Winter Salami comes from large, naturally fed, quarantine-compliant pigs. The pork processing process is not to grind the filling with a machine, but to cut the filling, so that the fibers of the pork are not destroyed.
In the condiment room, a variety of fresh condiments are strictly prepared according to the secret recipe ratio, and as for what to put how much, it is top secret.
Subsequently, the finely sliced meat and spices are mixed together in a huge blender to form a red meat filling, and then the meat filling is poured into the small intestine.
Then proceed to the smoking process. The roasting lasts for 7 weeks, using carefully selected dried beech wood that has been dried for more than two years and is smoked over a hot firewood.
Finally, after a hundred days of air drying, grayish-white mold spots form on the surface of the intestine.
The unique flavor of Pico Winter Salami is not only due to secret seasoning, but also to the unique climate of the city of Szeged where the factory is located, and the year-round refreshing air from the Water of the Tisa River flowing through this area – something that cannot be missing during the 100-day air drying process.
The excellent conditions of the production area give the pick winter salami a natural aroma and a unique taste. The quality of the raw materials, the manufacturing process passed down from generation to generation in the production plant, the natural conditions of the Tisza River that benefit the mold, and the knowledge of master salami masters passed down from generation to generation – these have enabled Pick Winter Salami to conquer the tables of the whole world.
