Spiral ham is a popular pre-cooked meat known for its tenderness and sweet, smoky flavor. Typically derived from the hind leg of a pig, it’s sliced into a spiral shape for easy serving. Often cured and glazed with sugar, honey, or maple syrup, it’s a centerpiece in American cuisine, particularly during holidays like Easter and Christmas. Nutritionally, spiral ham is high in protein and rich in essential vitamins and minerals such as iron, zinc, and B vitamins, contributing to muscle health and energy metabolism. However, it can be high in sodium and saturated fat, especially when heavily glazed. Its preparation often involves curing methods that may introduce additives or preservatives. Pairing it with nutrient-rich sides like steamed vegetables can balance its nutritional profile while ensuring it remains a festive and flavorful dish.
