The Flavor Experience Their ever-popular flavor; slightly spicy with a touch of smoke is a customer favorite. Their size may be convenient, but let’s face it – you love pepperoni, so get a few. The Story One of our most popular charcuterie items, this pepperoni is just as delicious on a homemade pizza as it is accompanying a strong Italian wine and another Di Bruno’s classic, imported sharp Provolone. Pepperoni, as we know it, may be less than 100 years old, but since it’s come on the scene, it has become the most popular pizza topping in the United States. In preparation for Super Bowl Sunday, Americans have been known to buy the equivalent of 40 million feet of pepperoni. This American original, overcoming a bad reputation as a cheap knock-off of authentic Italian salami, is experiencing its renaissance as a great, unique, and beloved style. We fully support the re-burgeoning love for pepperoni! Usage Tips Pepperoni is incredibly versatile, extending far beyond its classic pizza role. For optimal flavor and texture, consider rendering the slices in a pan to release their delicious oils, which can then be used to cook other ingredients, or crisp them up in a dry skillet for a delightful crunch perfect for salads or as a soup topping, just be careful not to overcook them. Beyond pizza, dice and sauté pepperoni to elevate scrambled eggs or omelets, or use it as a flavorful base for pasta sauces. It's a fantastic addition to hearty soups and stews, lending a smoky, spicy depth, and it can significantly enhance sandwiches, wraps, and even salads when thinly sliced or diced. Don't forget its potential in savory baked goods like muffins or bread, and it makes for an excellent appetizer, whether crisped up as "chips" or incorporated into stuffed mushrooms.
