Medium-coarse pork from heavy pigs is seasoned with salt, chilli, black pepper and wild fennel seed, rested cold and stuffed into natural casing. It drains, dries for 3–7 days and matures for at least 18 days, hung so it takes its U shape.

At a glance
Medium-coarse pork from heavy pigs is seasoned with salt, chilli, black pepper and wild fennel seed, rested cold and stuffed into natural casing. It drains, dries for 3–7 days and matures for at least 18 days, hung so it takes its U shape. Made in 6 steps over 21 days – 26 days. The longest step, mature, hung in a U, takes at least 18 days (Disciplinare di produzione della IGP Lucanica…) and runs at 13–18 °C (Disciplinare di produzione della IGP Lucanica…). Salt is 2–2.5 % (Disciplinare di produzione della IGP Lucanica…). Lactobacillus sakei does most of the fermenting.
Wild fennel seed must be the strongest aroma, ahead of pepper and chilli, and the sausage is hung up to dry so it takes a U shape. Its drying ends at a set pH of 4.8–5.3 and its maturing at water activity 0.88 or lower.
Piccante (spicy)More chilli, though wild fennel must still lead.
Slicing formatUp to 1.2 kg and 40–70 cm long.
Safety
The specification ends drying at pH 4.8–5.3 and maturing at water activity no higher than 0.88, and lists potassium nitrate (E252, up to 0.10 g/kg) and sodium nitrite (E250) among its permitted additives. The pork is dried, not cooked, and the US CDC says curing, drying or smoking alone does not consistently kill Trichinella worms.
The specification, citing Ettore Bove's study, says Varro, Martial, Apicius and Cicero show that the Romans called the sausage they found in Lucania "luganega". A first small salumificio opened in Picerno in the early 1970s. The PGI was registered in October 2018. A standard amendment approved on 30 June 2025 replaced the average live weight per batch with an individual carcass weight of 110.1–180.0 kg, merged and revised the pig feed tables, and deleted the specification's controls article.
