Sorted hams are cured, smoked, or processed cuts of pork, typically categorized by flavor, salt content, and preparation style. Common in cuisines worldwide, they range from delicately thin slices like Italian prosciutto to heartier options such as country hams from the Southern United States. Packed with protein and essential vitamins like B12, sorted hams can be a valuable source of energy. However, their high sodium content from the curing process requires mindful consumption, especially for those monitoring heart health or blood pressure. Some varieties also contain added sugars or nitrates for flavor and preservation, which should be considered in a balanced diet. When enjoyed in moderation, sorted hams can enhance dishes as a flavorful protein option, complementing everything from sandwiches to charcuterie boards.
