About Sliced cured meat

Sliced cured meat refers to thinly sliced portions of meat that have been preserved through salting, smoking, drying, or aging processes. Popular examples include prosciutto, salami, and chorizo, originating from Italian, Spanish, and other European cuisines. Made primarily from pork, beef, or game, these meats are seasoned with spices and herbs, giving them rich, aromatic flavors. While they provide a source of protein and essential vitamins such as B12 and iron, sliced cured meats often contain high levels of saturated fat and sodium, which may be a concern for heart health when consumed excessively. Some versions may also contain added preservatives or nitrites, which have been linked to potential health risks. Enjoyed as a snack, in sandwiches, or part of charcuterie boards, sliced cured meats can be savored in moderation as part of a balanced diet for optimal health.
