Notes
Handling Tips:
When opening the vacuum-sealed bag or removing bresaola from the refrigerator, allow it to come to room temperature for about 15-30 minutes before slicing and serving. This will enhance the flavor and make it easier to slice thinly.
The thinner the slice, the better the texture and flavor will be.
Bresaola is much more convenient if bought whole, so an electric meat slicer is a good investment if you plan on consuming it often.
Once you have sliced the bresaola, consuming it within a few days is best to maintain peak flavor and freshness.
If you have any leftovers, return them to the refrigerator in a resealable plastic bag or airtight container.
