What it is
This product combines thinly sliced Genoa salame and picante provolone cheese. Genoa salame is a dry-cured Italian sausage, typically seasoned with garlic and white wine. Picante provolone is a sharp, aged Italian cheese with a firm texture and a tangy flavor. The combination offers a savory and slightly spicy profile, ready for immediate use in various dishes or as a standalone snack.
