About Cotto ham
Cotto Ham is a type of cooked, cured pork product originating from Italian cuisine. Unlike dry-cured hams, such as prosciutto, Cotto Ham is moist, tender, and typically seasoned with spices and herbs before being slowly cooked. Made from the hind leg of a pig, it is usually brined with water, salt, sugar, and preservatives like sodium nitrite to enhance flavor and extend shelf life. Lower in fat than some traditional cured meats, Cotto Ham provides protein and essential nutrients like iron and B vitamins; however, it may be high in sodium, which can be a concern for individuals monitoring their salt intake. Versatile and mild, it is commonly used in sandwiches, salads, and pasta dishes, making it a popular choice for meals in both Italy and other cuisines worldwide.
