Details

Offer your patrons a taste of one of Italy's greatest treasures by serving this Tanara Giancarlo Prosciutto di Parma. Prosciutto di Parma, also known as Parma ham, is one of the most highly-prized meats in the world. Only by being made in accordance with strict regulations that ensure its high quality and absolute authenticity can this ham bear the mark of the 5-point Parma crown. This decadent cured meat is aged for 24 months and made from the hand-selected legs of heritage breeds of hogs that are raised on the lush pastures and abundant produce of northern Italy's Emilia-Romagna region. The legs are expertly trimmed, then coated with a layer of sea salt to dry and preserve the meat. These salted legs are left to cure for 24 months in the perfumed sea breezes of the region, during which time the meat develops a complex, lightly sweet, and savory flavor, as well as a striking ruby-red color shot through with rich white marbling. This exquisite product is made without preservatives: high-quality ham, sea salt, fresh air, and time are the only ingredients used to make this Prosciutto di Parma, just as it has been made for centuries!

This rich, traditional meat will make a truly gourmet addition to your next cheese plate or charcuterie board. For a truly stunning display, showcase this boneless prosciutto on a ham stand and slice it into delicate, thin ribbons for your guests to enjoy. Pair this Prosciutto di Parma with hard Italian cheeses like Pecorino Romano or Grana Padano, as well as olives, figs, melon, and rustic bread for a delicious antipasto platter that your guests are sure to remember! When served with a glass of crisp white, complex red, or lively sparkling wine, this Prosciutto di Parma will offer a delicious taste of the best of Italy. Plus, while it's delicious on its own, this Prosciutto di Parma makes a wonderful addition to any number of dishes on your menu! Add it to decadent sandwiches, where its rich flavor will enhance the taste of all of your other ingredients. It also makes a great topping for traditional Italian pizzas, especially when paired with melty mozzarella, brightly acidic tomato sauce, refreshing basil, and piquant arugula! Serve it alongside a plate of Tuscan tagliatelle and vegetables, or pair it with sauteed fresh asparagus or sweet peas. No matter how you choose to use it, this thin sliced Prosciutto di Parma will impart the taste of centuries of Italian culinary tradition into your signature dishes!
