this is the recipe for the tomatoes on the left? What about the other two. Cant make the tasting plate with only one thing. Have I missed something really obvious?
Jamon is the most delicious cured pig! It is very expensive, however you can get different grades of jamon- depending on the quantity and period of time the pigs fed on acorns. Ask the deli dept to shave prosciutto or pancetta instead. Slightly different flavour but still very yummy
Jamon is dry-cured ham. Very expensive. Prosciutto is a good substitute.
A few days ago i ate at a very lovely spanish tapas restaurant on Fitzroy St in St Kilda, named Entre Tapas y Venos...and they have and AWESOME jamon dish!! That was the first time i have heard of jamon , and now this is the second time, We got a stack of jamon with slices of baguette and a tomoto salsa. It was so delicious, when i ordered my dessert, by boyfriend had the jamon again instead.
i investigated and found jamon seems that is a type of ham Jamón Serrano This is the “cured ham” from white pigs, fed with a mixed diet of authorized commercial compound feed Jamón Ibérico Only ham from the Iberian pig is allowed to be called Jamón Ibérico. If no mention is made of bellota, then take for granted that the pig was fed with authorised commercial compound feed and only if you’re lucky they have tasted some acorns. Still, its taste is more refined than an ordinary Jamón Serrano Jamón Ibérico de Recebo Ham from the Iberian pig with fed with acorns and authorised compound feed during the last months of feeding Jamón Ibérico de Bellota Iberian ham from pigs that have been fed exclusively with acorns and herbs. This is the most refined ham available! Difference in quality depends now on the time of curation and the “know-how” of its producer Paletilla / Paleta While Jamon/Ham is fromthe hind leg of the pig, paletilla is the front leg. A paleta has an excellent taste and the same processes of ham-making applies. The Paleta will tend to have a sweater flavour.
what is jamon i could look it up but for the lay person it would be a good idea to have in brackets what some ingredients are
