Number Of Ingredients 14

For the Curing Rub:
3 pounds pork coppa or pork loin
2 1/2 tablespoons sea salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon curing salt #1 (aka Prague powder)
For the Seasoning Rub (feel free to tweak according to preference):
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
1 tablespoon fennel seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons black peppercorns
3/4 teaspoons anise seeds
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
You'll also need:
meat netting, size 24

Steps:

  • To make the cure, place the sea salt, sugar, red pepper flakes and pink curing salt in a coffee/spice grinder or use a mortar and pestle to grind them. (It is essential that the pink salt is evenly distributed in the rub.)Place the pork in a large bowl or on a work surface and massage the rub into the pork, making sure to get every nook and cranny.Wrap the pork tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate it for 5 days. After 5 days flip it over so the bottom side is up and refrigerate it for another 5 days.
  • After 10 days unwrap the meat. It will be firmer to the touch. Thoroughly rinse it under cold water to remove all the spices and set it aside while you prepare the final rub.To make the rub, place the fennel seeds, coriander seeds, anise seeds, red pepper flakes and black peppercorns in a coffee/spice grinder or use a mortal and pestle to grind the spices until you get a coarse rub. Lightly blot the coppa with a paper towel.Spread the rub out onto a plate or work surface and roll the coppa in it, coating all sides. Use up all the spice rub to coat the meat.
  • Next you'll need a #24 netting roll. Cut a piece of netting off the roll that is a few inches longer than your coppa.Stretch the netting and feed the coppa through it (unless you have a ham-stuffing funnel, it's easiest to do this with two people).
  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Fill a pan up with water and place it on the middle rack of the oven. This will create humidity as the coppa cooks to keep the coppa moist. Place the coppa on a roasting pan fitted with a wire rack and place the pan on the top rack of the oven. Cook the coppa for 1 hour, then turn the coppa over so the bottom side is up and bake it for another hour or until the internal temperature reaches 145-150 degrees F. Don't overcook or the meat will be dry.
  • Be patient, it's not quite ready yet! Remove the coppa, place it on a plate and refrigerate uncovered for 4 hours.
  • At that point your homemade Italian capicola is ready to eat! Slice it thinly and enjoy it on your sandwiches, pizzas or eaten on its own! (For professional looking deli meat slices, use an electric meat slicer.) To store, keep it wrapped tightly in plastic wrap in the refrigerator where it will keep for up to 2 weeks.The sliced capicola can also be frozen for up to a couple of months.

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 ounces seagrams 7 crown whiskey
1 ounce goldschlager
5 -7 ounces Diet Coke or 5 -7 ounces Coke

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients together
  • Pour over ice.
  • Stir.
  • Enjoy.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling around.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Whenever possible, use fresh ingredients for the best flavor. If you're using canned or frozen ingredients, make sure they're of good quality.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking meat or vegetables, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them more likely to stick.
  • Use the right amount of oil: When cooking, use just enough oil to coat the pan. Too much oil will make your food greasy and unhealthy.
  • Season your food: Don't forget to season your food with salt and pepper, and other herbs and spices. This will help bring out the flavor of the ingredients.
  • Don't overcook your food: Overcooked food is tough and chewy. Cook your food until it is just done, but not overcooked.
