Bündnerfleisch is paper-thin, deep-red air-dried beef from the Grisons, cured with wine, juniper, and Alpine herbs until intensely concentrated. Each translucent slice melts slowly on the tongue with a rich, beefy savor.
It is the classic Swiss appetizer: arranged fanned on a platter with dark bread, cornichons, and strong mustard. Slicing it whisper-thin is the whole art—use the sharpest blade you own.
