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

A shoulder is the cured front leg, and in Spain it is often what gourmets order for themselves. This Beher shoulder comes from 100% Ibérico pigs raised outdoors on pasture, grain and acorns (cebo de campo, green label), then cured slowly by a family house with four generations of know-how.

At 8-10 lb it is the most approachable whole leg we sell. The meat is sweeter and more concentrated than a ham, with a soft, glossy fat that carries a savory, nutty flavor. Slices are smaller than from a hind leg, which suits tapas well. It is a very good first ham stand project: forgiving, affordable and finished in weeks rather than months.

How to serve. Stand it on a ham stand and carve it thinly with a flexible knife, following the grain. Eat at 68-72 °F (20-22 °C) with a little fat on each slice. Dice the meat near the bone for eggs, rice and lentils.

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

Pairing. Fino or manzanilla sherry, a dry cava or a young Rioja. Add olives, marcona almonds and tomato bread.
