Jamon Dulce, or sweet ham, is a popular delicacy originating from the Philippines. This cured meat is made from pork, marinated in a mixture of sugar, salt, and select spices, then often glazed with honey or syrup for a signature sweet-savory flavor. It is typically enjoyed during festive occasions, such as Christmas, or as a versatile addition to meals. While high in protein, Jamon Dulce should be consumed in moderation due to its sugar content and sodium levels from the curing process. It provides an energy boost but may not be suitable for those on low-sodium or low-sugar diets. Pairing it with vegetables or whole grains can help balance its nutritional profile for a more wholesome meal.
