    Capicolla

    Mi grandmother called it "Coppa", but I learned from the internetz it's more commonly named Capicolla, or Capocollo.

    Ingredients:
    Pork shoulder
    Salt
    Cayenne Pepper
    Paprika
    Cord
    Paper

    4 days cold stored in salt, a lot of salt... covered in. It may release liquid. Throw away liquid, put more salt... fridge (repeat).

    Day 4: remove salt. Clean with water. Mix up Pepper, Paprika, and rub it wildly. Punch it and make it absorb all that spice. Make sure it's all covered up in the red hot mix.
    Tie up - you may use different techniques, google it. Cover in paper, tie up again. Make some holes for it to breathe, and hang in a fresh, cold place. Do not fridge. We don't want more humidity outside than inside the meat, it may cause mold. Write down the date you hanged it, trust me. Wait 1 month. If it causes mold, rinse it out with a wet piece of paper. Aaaand Pronto!
