Slinzega is a type of air-dried meat produced in Valtellina and Valchiavenna valleys, in the Italian Alps. It is made in a similar manner to bresaola, with smaller pieces of meat, which therefore bear a stronger taste. According to some sources, it originally used horse meat rather than beef. Nevertheless, today virtually any type of meat is suitable for its production; the most common being beef, deer and pork.

Characteristic

Aesthetically it looks quite similar to bresaola, but it is produced in much smaller sizes (300–800 g)[1] and has a much stronger flavor due to the aromatization with salt, cinnamon, cloves, garlic, bay leaf, and pepper.

The charcuterie lasts about a month.[2]
