This is not the actual process but a research about the culatello curing process by Massimo Spigaroli
How can a maestro like Massimo Spigaroli cure a culatello in only 5 days when the standard rule is 5-7 days per kilogram (which would be 30+ days for a typical piece)?
The answer lies in understanding that "curing" for Spigaroli is not just passive salt diffusion—it's a precisely orchestrated, multi-stage process of active moisture removal and environmental manipulation.
