Prosciutto is a dry-cured ham that hails from Italy, celebrated for its rich flavor and delicate texture. Made from the hind leg of a pig, this artisanal delicacy undergoes a meticulous curing process that can last anywhere from nine months to several years. Prosciutto is naturally low in carbohydrates and a great source of protein, making it a savory addition to a balanced diet. However, it is also high in sodium, so moderation is key. Enjoy it wrapped around fresh melon, layered on crusty bread, or as part of a charcuterie board to savor a taste of Italy in every bite.
