About Achterham

Achterham is a traditional Dutch cured pork product known for its rich flavor and tender texture. Typically taken from the hind leg of the pig, it is lightly seasoned and often smoked, giving it a distinctive taste that pairs well with bread, cheese, or eggs. Achterham is commonly used in sandwiches, breakfast dishes, and salads, and is a staple in Dutch cuisine. Nutritionally, it is a good source of protein, supporting muscle growth and repair, and contains essential vitamins such as B6 and B12. However, it is also relatively high in sodium and saturated fat, making moderation important for those managing heart health or blood pressure. When selecting Achterham, opting for versions with lower sodium content can be a healthier choice. Its balance of savory flavor and flexibility in meals makes it a popular choice for those seeking a satisfying, protein-rich addition to their diet.
