What is normal on a cured ham

A whole ham cures for months in natural cellars, so a few things are signs of a good cure, not damage:

  • Mold on the rind. A white or bluish bloom on the outside skin is normal. Wipe it off with a cloth and a little olive oil before you start carving.
  • Tiny white crystals in the meat. They are tyrosine, an amino acid that forms during long curing, typical of Ibérico ham. They are safe and a sign of age.
  • Fat that “sweats”. In a warm room the fat softens and shines; Ibérico fat is so rich in oleic acid that it melts close to room temperature. Keep the ham somewhere cool and it firms up again.

Description

Jamón Serrano is the classic Spanish ham, found on every bar counter from Madrid to Seville. Cortijo de Canata cures its Reserva for 15 months, long enough to develop a firm bite, a rosy color and a balanced salty-sweet taste. It comes from white-breed pigs, so it is leaner and more affordable than Ibérico.

The 13-14 lb leg is the smaller of the two whole Serranos we carry. It is easier to store, quicker to finish, and a very good choice for a household that wants a real ham stand experience without a big commitment. Slices are wide and tender, with a thin line of fat, and the flavor is clean and savory with a hint of sweetness at the finish.

How to serve. Mount on a ham stand and slice thinly across the grain with a flexible knife. Serve at 68-72 °F (20-22 °C). Use the trimmings in croquetas, scrambled eggs, white beans or fried with green peppers.

Storage. Store whole in a cool, dry place. After cutting, cover the cut face with baking paper and a clean cotton cloth, and finish it within 3 to 6 weeks.

Pairing. Dry cava, young white wines or light reds. On the table: Manchego, olives, melon and bread with tomato.

Shipping. $29.95 flat rate in the contiguous US, or free when your order reaches $250, for example with a stand and a knife. Ships from Florida in 1-2 business days.

FAQ

Is this ham boneless?

No. It is a whole bone-in leg, which is the traditional way to carve and keep jamón at its best.

How many servings will I get?

A 13-14 lb ham yields a little under half its weight in edible meat, enough for dozens of tapas servings.

Can I buy it already sliced?

Yes. We carry a knife-cut Serrano in packs and a boneless block. See the related products below.
