Ham Bread is a savory baked good originally popularized in Latin American cuisine, particularly Venezuela, during the holiday season. It features a soft, slightly sweet dough rolled and filled with slices of cooked ham, smoked bacon, green olives, and raisins, creating a balanced blend of sweet, salty, and smoky flavors. Some modern variations may include other ingredients like nuts or cheese. While Ham Bread offers a source of protein and healthy fats from the ham and olives, it is also moderately high in refined carbohydrates due to the enriched bread dough. Additionally, the inclusion of bacon can contribute saturated fat and sodium, which should be consumed in moderation. Ham Bread is best enjoyed occasionally as a festive treat. Pairing it with a fresh salad or vegetable-based side can complement its rich flavors and add more nutritional balance to your meal.
