Jamón Ibérico de Bellota Pieces for Cooking by Peregrino

True Jamón Ibérico de Bellota is Spain's finest culinary achievement. Rich and flavorful with a nutty taste, this ham is truly remarkable.

These hams are from free-roaming black Ibérico pigs that gorge themselves on acorns. The resulting ham cures for over two years.

Our Jamón Ibérico de Bellota slices sell for almost $60 for 3 ounces. Here, we offer you 3 ounces for a fraction of that price. Note that these small pieces do have a significant amount of flavorful fat. This can be used to flavor stews or even paella, since it literally melts when heated. A favorite recipe of ours is to place a small amount in shucked oysters and broil them for a couple of minutes. The fat melts into the lightly cooked oyster - incredible!
