Speck is a type of bacon from the South Tyrol region of Italy. Made by Recla, a well respected producer since 1919, this meat is rubbed with a mix of spices that is a well kept family secret. Basically it is a mix of rock salt, sea salt, pickling salt, pepper, juniper berries, various herbs and a hint of allspice. Two weeks of dry curing is the first stage in preserving the meat. The speck is then lightly cold-smoked over beechwood chip, producing its signature flavor. The individual pieces of speck are then stacked carefully for maturing in aging cellars, where the product loses about 40% of its weight in the slow drying process. This maturing is important for the bacon to become truly tender. Unlike American bacon, this type of bacon does not require any additional cooking - simply bring it to room temperature and slice it. Serve it with or without its spicy crust.

Alto Aldige Speck
The Speck is excellent. A little different from the North Tyrol Region Speck but very tasty. I will order it again. The service is great as well.

italian speck alto adige
My Swiss husband constantly pines for his 'speck' and this one satisfies that itch. He savors it immensely! He loves the texture and taste that is only found in European tradition of speck making.

Perfect
My Swiss husband always reminisced over his "speck". For his birthday I wanted to surprise him with it. I looked everywhere & only igourmet had it. My hubby LOVES it! We'll be buying a lot more of it for sure!

Good all round addition to your food.
Add chunks to beans, make small sandwiches or bacon biscuits, nibbles, excellent wherever ham would be used.
