Bresaola Piccola (Mocetta)

Pronounced Mochetta, it is a small version of Bresaola and one of very few beef products in the Italian deli. Mocetta and Bresaola originated in small regions in the mountainous far north of Italy but are now used widely. Mocetta comes from the Valle d'Aosta Region of Italy bordering France. The beef eye of round is dry-rubbed, massaged, marinated and air-dried. It has no casing. Mocetta is a perfect substitute for bresaola or beef carpaccio and is prepared in the same way. In Valle d'Aosta it is also served on bread with garlic butter and honey or with Raclette.

USES: Use like Bresaola or beef carpaccio for an appetizer which can include olive oil, Parmigiano shavings, arugula and lemon juice

SLICING: A deli slicer is required for best results. Mocetta is only ever sliced paper thin like prosciutto. It should be translucent when sliced. There is no casing, so no preparation is needed before putting it on the slicer.

INGREDIENTS: Beef, Salt, Organic Spices, Natural Flavors, Organic Garlic.
