Our take on the Prosciutto
Prosciutto is dry-cured Italian ham, sliced thin and eaten uncooked. It has a salty, savory flavor and a silky texture that melts on the tongue. It suits charcuterie boards, sandwiches, and wrapping around melon or asparagus. Compared with cooked hams, it is saltier and more intensely flavored, and it is a pantry staple rather than a everyday sandwich meat.

Questions and answers
- Is prosciutto eaten raw?
- Yes. Prosciutto is dry-cured and eaten uncooked, usually sliced paper-thin. It is not a raw pork product in the usual sense; the curing process preserves it.
- How should I store it?
- Keep it refrigerated and wrapped tightly. Once opened, use it within a few days, as the slices dry out and lose their texture.
- What does it pair with?
- Melon, figs, mozzarella, crusty bread and light wines are classic pairings. It also works in sandwiches and on pizza after baking.
- Is it very salty?
- Yes, it is saltier than cooked ham. A little goes a long way, and it balances well with sweet fruit or mild cheese.
- Can I cook with it?
- It is best uncooked, but it can be crisped briefly or added to hot dishes at the end. Prolonged cooking makes it tough and very salty.
- Where is the Prosciutto cheapest?
- At Paulina Market, for $13.75, as of our latest check.
