Bocconcini Hot Salami Nuggets
What it is
These are small, bite-sized pieces of cured pork sausage. They are seasoned with spices that give them a noticeable heat. The nuggets are typically firm and have a slightly chewy texture. They are ready to eat straight from the package. The salami is made with pork and a blend of seasonings. It is then formed into small, uniform pieces for easy serving. The heat comes from chili peppers and other spices.
