Jamon Serrano
From:
Serrano is the go-to jamón for every day enjoyment. Milder and less intense than the deluxe Jamón Ibérico, this ham is cured from white Duroc pork instead of the indigenous Ibérico breed. Over thousands of years, the people of Spain developed the ideal method to preserve ham as a way to save meat for the coming winter. The hams are salted, and then hung in mountain curing rooms where they experience the changing seasons, losing up to 40% of their fat and developing deep, complex flavors. They continue to be cured using these same techniques, albeit with the benefits of modern technology.
