'Nduja, pronounced as [inˈduːja], is a delectably spicy and spreadable pork sausage hailing from the charming region of Calabria, Italy. This delectable 'salume' has its roots in the small village of Spilinga. To create this fiery delicacy, Calabrian chili peppers are sun-dried and minced with trimmings from various cuts of meat and fatback. The flavourful mixture is then stuffed into large sausage casings, smoked, and aged for 3-6 months. The resulting soft, large sausage can then be easily scooped out as needed to elevate your taste buds. 'Nduja is typically enjoyed with slices of bread or paired with ripe cheese, thanks to its distinctive taste, which makes it a versatile ingredient for all kinds of recipes. For instance, it adds a bold kick to pasta sauces. You can find 'nduja in jars or as thick slices from the soft sausage. Originally, this unique delicacy was created as a budget-friendly option using leftover meat scraps, historically consumed by the poor population in southern Italy.
