About Iberico ham

Iberico Ham is a premium cured meat originating from Spain, renowned for its rich flavor and exquisite texture. Made from the hind legs of Iberian pigs, the ham derives its distinctive taste from the pigs' acorn-based diet and lengthy curing process, which can last up to three years. It is high in protein and healthy monounsaturated fats, including oleic acid, which is beneficial for heart health. Iberico Ham is also a good source of essential vitamins and minerals like B vitamins, zinc, and iron. However, it tends to be high in sodium due to the curing process, so moderation is recommended. A centerpiece of Spanish cuisine, Iberico Ham is often enjoyed thinly sliced as a delicacy or paired with cheeses and fruits. Its intense, nutty flavor and melt-in-your-mouth texture make it a luxurious treat within a varied and balanced diet.
