Spianata calabrese is a traditional Italian salami from Calabria, made from coarsely ground pork and seasoned with a mix of spices, including chili peppers, which gives it a distinctive spicy flavor. Its name, meaning "flattened" in Italian, refers to its unique shape. Spianata calabrese is characterized by its bold taste, rich aroma, and is often enjoyed sliced thinly as part of antipasto platters, on sandwiches, or with cheese and bread.
