Storing Nduja Salami

Post by Indaswamp » Thu Sep 03, 2020 18:29

So, I have 5Kg. of Nduja in my chamber drying. When it has lost 15-25% moisture, how do you recommend I go about storing it? With firmer salamis, I am able to remove the casing and mold, vac pack and it's good,but being that the Nduja is so soft, should I leave the casings on but clean the mold off and then vac. pack? What do you suggest? Thanks in advance..

I would brush and wash the casings well, let dry and then Vac seal. If you do not remove all the mold it will get slimy when vac sealed.

No need to. Mold is aerobic and will die when vac sealed.

I've seen people who storage nduja in Mason jars. I've always wondered how to storage large batches in Mason jars to keep them for long times.

It's very hot where I live and these spreadable tend to spoil quick right after opened/cut open (happened to me with 4kg batch). I read about people storaging in Mason jars but I have no idea how to do this to keep it safe for months (maybe more?).
