What is Pepperoni?

Pepperoni is an Italian-American salami made from beef and pork. These two meats are mixed together with spices and formed into a log with a width of roughly 32mm. The pepperoni has a muted red tone with tiny dots of cream colored fat. The flavor is tangy, salty and meaty. Pepperoni is sliced thin and often used as a topping for pizzas and as a filling for calzones.
