About Cappacola

Capicola, also known as coppa or capocollo, is a traditional Italian cured meat made from pork neck or shoulder. This flavorful delicacy is seasoned with a blend of spices such as pepper, garlic, and paprika, then dry-cured and often aged for several months to develop its rich, savory profile. Capicola is a staple in Italian cuisine, frequently enjoyed in sandwiches, charcuterie boards, or antipasto platters. Nutritionally, capicola is high in protein and essential vitamins such as B12, but it’s also rich in sodium and fat due to the curing process. While its moderate fat content contributes to its tender texture and robust taste, it’s best consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. For those mindful of their health, pairing capicola with fresh vegetables or whole-grain bread can help enhance its nutritional value.
