Origin

In Italian, “prosciutto” simply means ham. The history of Prosciutto Crudo dates back thousands of years to pre-Roman times, when villagers in Italy preserved meat for long winters by dry-curing pork legs with salt and spices like garlic, juniper, rosemary, and black pepper. Today, this time-honored tradition continues, with premium pork legs aged for 14 to 36 months to achieve the perfect balance of tenderness and flavor.
