About Prosciutto slice
Prosciutto is a traditional Italian cured meat made from thinly sliced pork, typically seasoned with salt and air-dried over several months to develop its tender texture and rich, savory flavor. This delicacy originates from regions such as Parma and San Daniele, where artisanal methods have been perfected over generations. Prosciutto is naturally low in carbohydrates and contains protein, essential vitamins like B6, and minerals such as potassium. However, it tends to be high in sodium due to the curing process, and its fat content includes saturated fat. It is best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet, often paired with fresh fruits, vegetables, or whole-grain bread to enhance its nutritional value. Whether served on charcuterie boards or wrapped around melon slices, prosciutto represents a cornerstone of Italian cuisine admired worldwide for its distinctive taste and delicate texture.
