Volpi Sliced Prosciutto Americano vs Rovagnati Prosciutto Italiano

Buy the Volpi if you want a sweeter, softer prosciutto with a clean two-ingredient label and a lower-sodium slice, and you like buying in a six-pack. Buy the Rovagnati if you want a drier, saltier, more intensely cured ham with a full 24-month cure and Italian origin. Both are ready-to-eat, pre-sliced 3 oz packs; the Volpi is the gentler everyday ham, the Rovagnati the more traditional crudo.

• Choose the Volpi Prosciutto Americano if you want a mild, sweet, melt-in-the-mouth slice with no added nitrites and less salt per serving.
• Choose the Rovagnati Prosciutto Italiano if you want a longer-cured, drier, more savory Italian crudo with a firmer bite.
