smoked or salted Italian ham eaten in very thin slices
What is "prosciutto"?
Prosciutto is a type of Italian dry-cured ham made from the hind leg or thigh of a pig, typically from specific breeds such as the Large White, Landrace, or Duroc. The process of making prosciutto involves salting the meat, then air-drying it for several months to several years, depending on the desired flavor and texture. The result is a thinly sliced, tender, and intensely flavorful ham with a rich, savory taste and a delicate texture.
