The COPPA is a type of Italian charcuterie, which is obtained by drying the muscle of the pork neck, which is marinated with spices and herbs before being smoked. It has a firm texture and a pink color, and a tasty and fragrant flavor, which recalls that of raw ham. The COPPA is very popular in Italy and other European countries, where it is often served in thin slices, accompanied by cheeses, fruit or toast. It can also be used to flavor meat, fish or vegetable dishes, or to prepare sandwiches or salads.
