Netting & Netting Tubes

Netting holds a salami's shape while it dries and gives you something to hang it by. It also does something less obvious: it presses the casing evenly against the meat, so the drying happens at the same rate all the way round.

We stock Italian netting in single and double strand, and heavy duty netting tubes for the larger diameters like sopressa and capocollo. The plastic netting tube is the applicator, the part that makes the job possible: you load the netting onto the tube, push the filled salami through, and it comes out already netted. Doing it without one is a two person job and a bad afternoon. Caps for the netting tubes are stocked separately.

Q Netting white stockinette is the alternative for whole muscle work like pancetta and bresaola, where you want breathable cover rather than compression.

Size the netting to the casing, not to the meat. Too loose and it does nothing, too tight and it cuts into the casing as the salami shrinks, which it will do by a third or more.

The olive net at 12 x 6 metres, edged and heavy duty, sits here too. Different season, same shed.

Ask us about sizing before your first batch. See also natural casings, collagen casings, hooks and hanging and butcher's twine. Part of our Salami and Sausages range.
