Zabar's Prosciutto Ham (Imported from Italy)

Product ID: 411001U

Ah, Prosciutto. The pinnacle of pig, King of All Cured Meats. Such an elegant pork product comes from such simple, rustic beginnings: hog legs are salted and stacked to drain their moisture and preserve the meat, then they are rinsed and hung to dry in Italian mountain-side curing huts. That's it! An age-old recipe for modern palates. Very thinly sliced, it wraps nicely around melon, makes the best panino sandwich, or simply roll it up and serve alongside your favorite Italian cheeses. Slice it a little thicker and you can fry it like bacon, or chop it to add to pasta and chicken dishes. Meaty and savory, with a rich porky flavor and balanced salinity. Imported from Italy. Available in 8-oz or 1-lb packages, half- or whole hams.
