Nduja
Callipo Nduja 200g is a traditional Calabrian spicy spreadable salami made in the famous village of Spilinga, combining pork, hot chilli peppers and olive oil for a rich, smoky and fiery flavour. Soft in texture and deeply savoury, ’nduja melts beautifully into sauces, spreads easily onto bread and adds instant depth to a wide range of Italian dishes.
Made using traditional Calabrian methods, this authentic Italian nduja delivers warming heat balanced with the richness of pork fat and the sweetness of chilli. The soft consistency allows it to blend smoothly into tomato sauces, pasta dishes and risottos, while also working perfectly spooned over pizza or spread onto toasted crostini.
Bringing the nduja to room temperature before serving helps release its full flavour and softens the texture for easier spreading and cooking. Whether stirred through pasta, melted into seafood dishes or added to roasted vegetables, it brings bold Southern Italian character to everyday meals.
Perfect paired with San Marzano tomatoes, artisan pasta, mozzarella, burrata, sourdough bread and Italian cheeses for comforting Calabrian-inspired dishes and sharing boards.

Why is nduja softer than other Italian salami?
Unlike firm cured salami, nduja contains a higher proportion of pork fat and is blended into a spreadable consistency. This softer texture allows it to melt easily into hot dishes and sauces, making it especially versatile in cooking.
What makes Calabrian nduja different from other spicy meats?
Calabrian nduja is known for its intense chilli flavour and smooth spreadable texture, which are closely linked to the region’s long tradition of chilli cultivation. The balance of pork richness and warming spice is distinctive to southern Italian cuisine.
Can nduja be used beyond pasta and pizza?
Yes. Nduja works particularly well stirred into soups, spooned onto roasted vegetables, melted into seafood dishes or mixed into mayonnaise and butter for spicy condiments. Even a small amount can add savoury depth and heat to a dish.
