What is ham?

Ham not only refers to the legs of animals, but also the legs of cows, sheep, pigs and chickens.

Ham is a traditional delicacy in China. Originated in Jinhua, Zhejiang, it is most famous for modern ham produced in Jinhua, Zhejiang and Rugao, Jiangsu, Anfu, Jiangxi and Xuanwei, Yunnan.

In foreign countries, ham salted and dried with whole pig legs is the representative of Spanish cuisine. Among all kinds of hams, "Iberian Ham" has the best quality, the greatest reputation and the most expensive price.

Precautions for ham cooking (tips);

(1) Ham meat is hard to cook. If you put some sugar on the ham before stewing, it will be easier to stew and taste more delicious.

(2) When cooking soup with ham, a small amount of rice wine can be added, which can make ham more delicious and reduce salt.

(3) It is not easy to cut the whole ham with a knife. If a saw is used instead of a knife, the ideal effect can be obtained.
