prosciutto

Prosciutto ( prə-SHOO-toh, proh-, Italian: [proʃˈʃutto]) is an Italian dry-cured ham that is usually thinly sliced and served uncooked; this style is called prosciutto crudo in Italian (or simply crudo) and is distinguished from cooked ham, prosciutto cotto.
A number of regions have their own variations of prosciutto, each with degrees of protected status, but the most prized are the Prosciutto di Parma PDO from the Emilia-Romagna region and the Prosciutto di San Daniele PDO from the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region. Unlike Italian Speck, which is also a dry-cured ham, prosciutto is not smoked.
The names prosciutto and prosciutto crudo are generic, and not protected designations, and may name or describe a variety of hams more or less similar to Italian prosciutto crudo or other dry-cured hams worldwide.

    Recipe Mussels in garlic butter sauce with prosciutto and piquillo peppers

    Piquillo peppers* are a vibrant red and have a mild fruity taste which is a lovely combination with the slightly salty prosciutto and sweet mussels. The tarragon adds an aniseed flavour to this dish, but you could use basil instead if you prefer. I used prosciutto cotto but crudo would be fine...

    Recipe Quinoa Stuffed Quinoa Ravioli

    I used a tricolor quinoa to grind up into flour, so the result is darker than it might be with a light colored quinoa. I didn’t trust the flour to hold together into a pasta by itself, so I blended it with my favorite pasta flour, “00” flour. Quinoa flour can be used in the same proportions as...

    Classic carbonara has egg yolk, Pecorino Romano, guanciale, black pepper, pasta and maybe some pasta water, that's it. But, it seems like sometimes you end up with scrambled eggs and pasta. This method virtually eliminates that possibility. This recipe also is not classic in that it uses...
