I'm Matthew and I'm Molly and this is spilled milk the show where we cook something

delicious eat it all and you can't have any. Today we are talking about salami.

And it's it's not cooked because it's sort of cooked by beneficial bacterial action.

Some of my favorite things are cooked by beneficial bacterial action.

Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

I mean kind of like cheese, cheese, wine, beer, no, that would be yeast.

Old socks.

Yes.

All kinds of stuff.

Anyway, I'm pretty excited about this episode,

episode.

Me too. It's like a show and an episode in one and like so many of our

other episodes we get to eat a whole lot of something we like Like so many of our other episodes were drunk. So what is

salami and like what makes it different from another dry- cured sausage?

I'm so glad you asked Molly.

I am glad I asked too because it's written

on the piece of paper in front of me.

I sat up at night pondering this very question. I'm glad you did because I didn't.

Trying to come up with a definition of salami. I don't know if it is remotely accurate, but here's what I came up with.

It's a fermented, dried, non-emulsified, non-smoked pork or beef sausage.

Did you just come up with that really off the top of your head?

Well not just right this second.
