Centuries ago, the artisans of Spain developed their unique methods of curing artisanal ham, creating a dry-cured ham that has become a mainstay of Spanish cuisine. This generous cut of Jamón Serrano allows you to enjoy that tradition – two pounds of the finest Serrano ham available in America today.
The center piece cut is a delicious and economical choice. Slice thinly and serve to guests, or dice and use it to enhance your favorite soup or tapas. Enjoy with a chilled wine or sherry such as Fino, and you have a satisfying meal straight from a Spanish café.
This Serrano ham was cured for over 18 months in the countryside of Spain, developing the full intense flavor that is a signature of this delicious meat.
You probably won’t have any leftover pieces, but if you should, don’t worry about storing it. Dry cured Serrano hams are protected by a natural layer of fat, so a plastic wrapped piece will stay fresh for some time when refrigerated or frozen. Simply cut away the outer surface and you are ready to slice.
