Granai della Memoria

In 2012, Giovanni Sartoretti welcomed the first year students of the Univeristy of Gastronomic Sciences into his firm. In the interview he explains the secrets to make a genuine product of excellent quality.

The best product of his company is Mortadella Ossola (Sartoretti's is the only company in the province recognized asa Slow Food Presidium). This mortadella should not be confused with Mortadella Bolognese. It is a raw salami whose dough is very similar to the one of a sausage. It is produced using only the cured neck of pork with the addition of a small amount of pork liver, flavored with mulled wine. All these ingredients give it a soft and palatable taste. The binding is hand-made and the seasoning lasts 30 days.
