Nduja is one of the most famous, if not the most famous, among the typical Calabrian food products. Nduja is a soft, spreadable, very spicy salami.
The name nduja derives from the French "andouille", which means "sausage". It is not, however, a sausage, however much it may resemble one.
Nduja is made with pork, some fat, and a lot of hot pepper. And it is precisely because of the abundant chilli that nduja is very spicy. It is no coincidence that someone might prefer a "light" version.
The nduja has a red color - needless to say - due to the presence of the chilli, and a consistency that does not become hard even after maturing.
