About Porto ham

Porto Ham, a specialty of Portuguese cuisine, is a cured meat known for its robust flavor and tender texture. Made from pork, it undergoes a meticulous curing process that involves salting, drying, and aging to develop its signature taste. Porto Ham is typically seasoned with salt and occasionally spices, providing a high-protein food that's rich in flavor. While it contains essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and B-vitamins, it is also relatively high in sodium and fats due to its preservation method. Moderation is recommended for those mindful of heart health or salt intake. Porto Ham is versatile, often enjoyed as a savory addition to charcuterie boards, sandwiches, or traditional Portuguese dishes. Celebrate its heritage while balancing its indulgence within a healthy diet.
