About Schouderham

Schouderham, known as shoulder ham in English, is a lean, cured pork product often used in European cuisine, particularly in Dutch and Belgian dishes. Made from the pig’s shoulder portion, it is typically brined, cooked, and lightly smoked to enhance its flavor. This ham is characterized by its tender texture and mild, savory taste. Nutritionally, schouderham is a rich source of protein while being relatively low in fat compared to other cuts of pork, making it a popular option for those seeking a leaner meat choice. It also contains essential vitamins and minerals, including iron and zinc. However, its sodium content may be high due to the curing process, so moderation is advised, especially for individuals watching their salt intake. Schouderham is versatile, often enjoyed as a sandwich topping or incorporated into salads and hot dishes for added flavor and nutrition.
