The flavor of a 100% Iberian breed ham is characterized by its high level of oleic acid and high unsaturated fats that provide that characteristic flavor. And which is so beneficial for our organism, Omega 3 and 6

Within these factors, the better the feed, the origin of the Iberian breed and the type of breeding, the better the quality of the ham. When it comes to consuming one ham or another, especially if we compare them, the breed and whether it has been fed on acorns, pasture or even fruit will stand out over white breed hams that have been fed on feed.

Characteristics of 100% acorn-fed Iberian ham

It is very important to know the geographical location, feeding, certification, curing and breeding of Iberian ham to recognize it as such.

Iberian ham is considered to be 100% acorn-fed

Iberian ham is considered to hams of Iberian breed that have been raised and cured in the Iberian Peninsula, (in Spain and Portugal). And only these. For this reason, the certification issued by the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture is very important, and it guarantees the traceability of the animal, the purity of the breed, the food it has been fed and the type of breeding it has had. The certification is shown with a plastic label, vitola or seal, around the hoof and depending on the color, it is one type of Iberian ham or another. In our case, the black label is the one that gives the greatest distinction

The feed in the 100% Iberian pigs that we have in Made in Spain Gourmet have been fed only with natural feed, natural pasture and acorns.

At first glance it is a fattier ham than the rest, its texture when cut is consistent. It has a darker color and veining when cut, which stands out to the eye. Its flavor is very characteristic and it is more cured than the rest of Iberian hams. Its flavor leaves a pleasant taste on the palate that lasts for a while

Ham slicing

Cutting the ham

1. Initial cut: start cutting the ham by placing the black hoof facing upwards.

2

2. Clean the ham: this means cutting the outer layer as much as we want to consume at that moment. It is advisable to clean both sides of the ham as you cut it so that it does not dry out.

3

3. Save slices of fat: these slices of bacon should be saved for later preservation and to prevent oxidation.

4

4. Slicing: it is important to cut ham always parallel to the central axis of the ham that goes from the hoof to the tip. Always towards us and be careful not to cut yourself.

5

5. Separate the bone: with a boning knife, separate the meat from the bone on both sides. Afterwards, it will come off without any effort

6. Turn over: turn the ham over when we cannot manage to cut slices of adequate dimensions with a horizontal and flat cut. This is indicated by the femur, patella and tibia bones of the ham

7. Repeat the same procedure from the starting point.
