About Bayonne ham

Bayonne Ham is a cured and air-dried pork delicacy originating from the Basque region of France, specifically the city of Bayonne. It is traditionally made using high-quality pork legs that are salted with local salt from the Adour River basin and then left to dry for up to 12 months. This process results in a distinctively tender and flavorful ham with subtle sweetness and mild saltiness. Bayonne Ham is rich in protein and contains essential vitamins and minerals, such as B vitamins, iron, and zinc, which support muscle function and energy metabolism. However, its sodium content can be high due to the curing process, making moderation key for those watching their salt intake. Often enjoyed thinly sliced, it pairs beautifully with fruits, cheeses, or incorporated into salads and entrées as a savory enhancement to dishes typical of French and Mediterranean cuisine.
