Detailed Information

Lardo is a staple of Italian charcuterie, particularly famous in Tuscany and northern Italy. The carefully selected pork fat is dry-cured with salt, rosemary, black pepper, and other aromatic herbs, then aged in temperature-controlled environments to develop its refined texture and complex taste.

With a pure white appearance and slight marbling, Lardo DOK delivers a silky mouthfeel and subtle herbal aroma. When thinly sliced, it melts beautifully, making it ideal for serving on warm bread, incorporating into pasta, or using as a luxurious cooking fat.
