DescriptionDescription & Details
Air-cured jamón is a Spanish culinary icon and a true pleasure for the taste buds. This particular ham is made with pork from the Mangalica, a heritage hog native to Hungary, that’s distinctive for its thick coat of curly hair and abundant intramuscular fat. Popularly known as the “Kobe beef of pork,” the dark meat and abundant marbling inherent to Mangalica make it the perfect candidate for extended curing. Fourth-generation maestro jamoneros - literally “masters of ham” – cure the Mangalica ham for at least 3 years at high altitudes in the fresh, clean air of the Rasillo de Cameros Mountains. The ham they create is intensely flavorful and streaked with creamy fat that melts on the tongue. With this whole ham and stand you can become an expert cortador – a ham carver. Enjoy Mangalica ham sliced paper-thin, and served with wine, cheese, nuts, and fruits – or make it the star of a charcuterie board.

Cooking & Serving
Watch our video to see the correct carving technique. This cured ham needs to be handled properly for the best experience.
Be sure to trim the thick layer of yellow fat off before carving, but only in the area you are going to carve. This is a natural build-up that occurs in the long curing process as a barrier to the air, but it is bitter tasting, and not suitable for eating. The layer is protective, so keep the slabs you trim off to place back on top of the carved area when you store it.
Use a long, flexible knife for slicing.
Cured ham is best served at room temperature.
A bone-in ham will continue to cure, even after you carve it.
Store it in a cool, dry place, loosely covered with a cloth and allow it to breathe. In Spain cured ham is often left in the stand on a sideboard (covered with a cloth), so people can just slice off a piece or two for a snack as they pass by. This daily attention seems ideal for a cured ham. If you will not be slicing it for a few days, it is best to store in the refrigerator and bring up to room temperature before slicing. If the surface looks dry, put olive oil on a cloth and place over the dry area.
Nutritional Facts
