Lardo DOK 1.5kg is a traditional Italian cured pork fat, crafted by DOK using time-honored curing techniques. Made from select cuts of pork back fat, this rich and delicate specialty is seasoned with sea salt, herbs, and spices, then aged to develop its smooth texture and aromatic depth. The result is a creamy, melt-in-the-mouth product with a delicate balance of saltiness and natural sweetness.

Detailed Information

Lardo is one of Italy’s most esteemed cured meats, particularly popular in Tuscany and Northern Italy. The pork fat is carefully trimmed, dry-cured with a mix of sea salt, rosemary, and other aromatic spices, then aged in marble basins or controlled environments for several months. This process enhances its silky texture and subtle herbal aroma, making it a delicacy often served thinly sliced on warm bread or incorporated into gourmet dishes.

Lardo DOK has a pure white appearance with slight marbling, offering a smooth, creamy consistency that melts beautifully when exposed to heat. Its delicate umami flavor makes it a favorite among chefs and charcuterie enthusiasts.
