The ritual of a good tasting implies a correct cutting. Indeed it is a question of obtaining almost transparent sections, because the finer the section will be, the more you will discover all gustatory qualities of your ham.
Manual or mechanical cutting is a matter of choice. The two processes offer advantages:
- Manual cutting with the knife is more subtle. It offers a symphony of flavours which vary according to the proximity of the osseous zones, the fat and the various parts of ham.
- Cutting with a machine requires a perfectly boned ham in order to cut fine sections, perpendicular to muscular fibres. This cutting is ideal to preserve a tender meat.
The ham is the fruit of a long process: mix of passion, tradition, character, harmony and infinite patience. It is among the cured products one of the noblest specialties, and this is why starting a ham of quality is always a moment of pleasure which will be a delight to your senses.
