Cut pork loin into smaller cubes.

Choose to either use a two knife method or a meat grinder to grind the meat.

If using a meat grinder, freeze the meat for about 20 minutes beforehand.

Mix the ground pork in a mixing bowl with salt, cracked pepper, and any additional aromatics.

Add 35 ml of red wine to the mixture and mix thoroughly.

Stuff the mixture into sausage casings using a sausage stuffer or a DIY funnel made from a 2-liter PET bottle.

When stuffing, do not tie the end of the casing until the meat starts to come through to avoid air pockets.

Tie the end of the casing with a granny knot and fold the flap back over the knot before securing it again.

Prick the salami with a needle to remove any air pockets, focusing on visible areas.

Record the weight of each sausage on a tag, noting the target weight for a 30% reduction to determine readiness.
