Iberic Ham, or Jamón Ibérico, is a prized Spanish delicacy made from the hind leg of black Iberian pigs, renowned for their unique diet of acorns during the "montanera" season. This ham is dry-cured for at least 12 months, resulting in complex flavors, a buttery texture, and marbled fat. Rich in high-quality protein, Iberic Ham provides essential amino acids and is a source of vitamins such as B1, B6, and B12. Its fat, primarily oleic acid from the acorns, promotes cardiovascular health when consumed moderately. However, it is high in sodium and calories, so portion control is key. Iberic Ham is celebrated in Mediterranean cuisine and often served thinly sliced as an appetizer or paired with fresh produce. Its artisanal production and distinctive taste make it a luxurious, yet occasionally indulgent, addition to a balanced diet.
