Bende Salami Teli 1.8 Lb - Authentic Hungarian Deli Meat, Perfect Sausage For Charcuterie Boards, Breakfast, Sandwiches, And More

Hi, I used to purchase the Pick Hungarian Salami, but it got so expensive. The alternative is the Teli brand.. Taste-wise it is getting as close as it gets to the Pick. I read a review that complains about the fat. Obviously, they haven't had the original Hungarian Salami. Yes, it doesn't have the casing as the original and yes it is some plastic. What doesn't have plastic packaging?I personally like the taste (one can argue about taste and never reach agreement) at half the cost of a Pick.

This salami is exact how I remember it from my childhood; the best salami ever!!!! This is my 3rd order and will continue to order. The flavor is simply amazing; the texture is appealing.

When you look at the cross-section of this salami, you can tell right away that it has an even texture, just like pepperoni sausage has. I like the taste of this salami, so I decided to try it on pizza, and wouldn't you know it tastes just like pepperoni!?! I slice it really thin using a sharp knife. Then add it to the top of my homemade pizza. I like adding sausage crumble too, and white mushrooms. Yum. This is a very versatile sausage. Eat it plain, put it on sub sandwiches, eat it with cheese and crackers. Whatever.HIGHLY RECCOMENDED!

Has become our go-to salami. Nicely seasoned, fine-grained, not too fatty.

Very tasty salami - not overly salty. It is still a little soft so it can be sliced effortless. To enhance the taste it should be sliced into very thin shape. Put it on a slice of bread and enjoy the rich flavor.To keep it fresh I cut it in smaller chunks and freeze it for later.I take the white skin of before I slice it. It comes off with little effort.If you like cold cuts this is a good addition.

I and my wife were born and lived in Europe for 30 years , somwe are very much aware of how Hungarian Salami suppose to look and most importantly taste . This product has truly nothing with what it claims to be .As pictured above , mostly fat …there is no deep red cured meat as advertised on pictures in website . Casing is only simulated Pick salami bacteria with plastic white color but most importantly, the taste is so bland, so terrible spices used that if you go for the cheapest hard salami in your local grocery store you will be miles ahead of this for fraction of the cost . Non returnable so it goes to waste ( which we hate - besides loosing money ) . Major disappointment, major embarrassment to real famous Hungarian meat culinary history . I just have to hope that we did hit some bad batch , because we had purchased some other meat items form Bende before and were satisfied .

I need a Slicer!!

About me...I have never had Hungarian salami, so I can't confirm if authentic. I only buy excellent quality salamis that have the penicilium mold on it.This product tastes okay, but here is why I did have to knock it off 2 stars.#1: I bought this because I thought it was a salami covered with penicilium mold as the picture made it appear to have the mold on it. I was upset to find that it was plastic. I re-read through the product details on the amazon page and nothing mentioned plastic. The plastic is really hard to remove. I have longer, natural fingernails and I couldn't get under the plastic easily to remove it. It's easiest to remove with the tip of your knife but still not anywhere as easy as a traditional molded salami. Note that I cut my slices and then remove the plastic. I do not just remove the plastic and then keep my salami uncovered/partially uncovered during storage.#2 The flavor is okay. I typically buy high quality salami, this just doesn't compete.
