Bresaola is a great cured meat. it is made from beef, or also, quite commonly in Italy, horse or donkey. Basically a very lean piece of meat (most commonly beef, especially if bought commercially) is salt cured with spices, then dried.

Very nice!  Gotta love Bresola. I’ve only made it once but was pleased with the results. I used a 5lb eye of round. My wife didn’t like it though because I hung it in the basement bedroom to dry in the same room as some of her clothes. Needless to say the clothes took on a slight “meat” smell for a while…..

lol

i dried it in the leaving room lol

feel free to add or remove spices , but not salt of course

after u rub the spices put eye of round in plastic bag in fridge and leave it for a week, turning it daily… then dry it
