Faustino Prieto Gran Reserva Ham Shoulder, the result of our search for perfection beyond any seal of quality.
We produce a very limited production due to the long curing period and the rigorous pre-production selection process. Exclusive for consummate palette lovers and for the most demanding gourmets. Without a doubt one of our crow jewels.
Preservation
To preserve it once opened, we defend the traditional way. Cut a thin slice of fat from the same ham and cover the part you have opened with it. Normally, it is recommended to put a cotton cloth, however, we always prefer to recommend putting a layer of film on top always trying to keep it in a dry and cool place (optimum temperature between 15º and 18º).
Preparation
If you are going to open it at home, you will open it with the hoof up or down depending on the amount of ham you are going to consume. Our recommendation is that you open the leg of the ham or the paleta (shoulder) with the hoof down because it is the most cured part and should be consumed first, however, if you are going to be enough people or you are going to offer ham or paleta at an event, start to slicing with the hoof up because the cut has more presence.
To cut it, use a support that holds the leg of the ham firm and begins to cut it with a long, sharp and flexible knife. Make sure that the hand opposite the knife is always above the other and make slow movements without applying too much force allowing the knife to slide. The slices should be thin, medium size and with intramuscular fat.
