Is that anything like nduja? I ordered some of that. I'm afraid of it. I'm not sure what to do with it.
I believe nduja is a salami from Calabria that is known for it's hot spiciness. Finocchiona is flavored with fennel and is not hot at all. I was so taken with it, that I took Italian lessons, so that I the next time we traveled to Italy, I could go to any deli and order it with confidence. The first time I pulled that off, was a truly empowering experience.
