How to Slice a Whole Jamón

[@metallicafan4920]

this man is so good at cutting, he cut out the audio at random parts in the video

[@eziolua11]

pretty sure that at the end he was saying that you can use most parts for cooking. Bones and fat for soups and stews.

no sound and still frame for large parts of the video for anyone else?

[@roller1815]

Yes, same for me

[@davesmith5656]

And the prices I'm seeing are almost ten times what you should pay. These people obviously don't give a crap. There are only so many years you can cure and age a ham before it goes hard as the outside of a golfball. Three years is what I've heard.

[@JacobSmith-xs3ir]

@@davesmith5656 i think you clicked on the wrong comment dude

[@davesmith5656]

@@JacobSmith-xs3ir - The no sound and still frame for large parts of the video weren't a server error, I don't think. More likely an editing error that no one there has bothered to correct, or even look at the video. I deduce from that, they don't really care. I saw a banner of products just under the video, with prices ranging all the way up to $1,300+ for one ham. The lowest price was a Smithfield ham, which I know where to get for about $40, but they had it priced at $158.xx. If you want to rely on a shoddy video posting and want to pay $1,300 for a ham, be my guest, I guess.

[@ericajohnson7535]

read a story to your jamon

[@bareegogingenandre]

I am a chef who have had a restaurant in Spain for some time. A ham like that is very expensive for a spanish worker and everybit of it is used. When you are not really hungry for dinner a few marbled slices, a few slices of cured sheep cheese, a couple of sweet cherry tomatoes, some salty sardines and fresh onions all topped with olives and you have a meal for kings. The more chunky bits you cube and put on toothpicks with cubes of an un-cured cheese like a shish kebab or you cut it into small pieces for omelets. The rest you cut away from the bone as much as possible into small pieces and put that and the bones into a minestrone soupe (in the winter)

[@niamh2739]

How long can the jamon keep ?

[@kib2675]

@@niamh2739 I keep them for years as whole. I had one for seven years before I started on it and it was great. It is important that they are not lean, but contain fat. The best ones have som fat as marbles in the meat. The lean ones, less than 12 months or they taste chewy like a rope. When you have started to cut, you can put some olive oil where it is opened to protect. If you have room for it in a fridge or a cool place, you can spend a month on cutting it down. If it gets dry, put a wet towel on it and some shrnk wrap on top off that for a couple of days. The white stuff on the surface is salt not fungue. The green stuff is fungue and you cut it away. When you take it out from storage (after maybe several years) brush it all over. Make a mix off water, 1/3 vinegar, 1/5 salt, to clean it with. Then massage olive oil into it, so it looks great..

How to cut a Whole Jamón: Step 1) Hire a pro to do it for you

[@hegilliam]

Not necessary. Easy to learn. They key is the ham knife you see in the video. My rule of thumb is to keep the slice thin enough that I can see the knife thru the ham slice as I cut it. Takes 5 minutes to learn. Eezy peezy.

[@08rowlam]

Hey Guys, We got given a Jamon as a present and were completely lost on how slice this beast! Your video literally saved us and we are now enjoying our Jamon experience to the full! As we write, we are tucking into La Maza, our favourite piece so far

Thanks for the video - very helpful. I did loose audio in some parts of the video (example 3:44). PSA - I picked up some Jamon at Costco. Not as expensive as I would have thought, and definitely a lot more affordable than buying the tiny trays of sliced jamon or presciutto.

[@runcamyt]

I just saw one yesterday. How was it?

[@niamh2739]

Those Jamones are not the same. They don't even taste the same just an FYI. In this case you get what you pay for. The good Jamon iberrico bellota legs run about $1300 but the ham is unlike any other truly and it melts in your mouth. It reminds me of my childhood.

Sounds like how I would end up eating it

[@79pejeperro]

Jonathan Mcmanus a friend of mine was invited was invited to a weddiing in France (he's from Spain), so he bought a super expensive pata negra as a present to be served during the cocktail. The fucking french cook, who I bet he knows what Jamón is, cut it to dices, which much less attractive and tasty, and most of it was wasted. I'm sure the cook did that on purpose

[@mrdude88]

Jonathan Mcmanus It would be so salty, unless you like salty food then I'm sure it would be just as delicious.

[@Mutiny960]

There is no NEED for it only a desire for overconsumption by fat, entitled, idiots. If we all focused on high quality rarities for special occasions like this one, instead of Fast Food BS for every meal, the world as a whole would be a better place.

[@cookiehead89142]

I was given a jamon recently. It was a gift that the receiver never opened and he gave it to me. It's been 7 months in the package. Would this be safe to consume? Online says it's safe in the package for 90 days. Should I chuck it?

[@shaunbava1801]

If it's a spanish jamon iberico, they are good for a year or more if stored properly. There is so much salt in these things that if it isn't moldy (not just a little surface mold but really moldy) or exhibiting off smells it's still good to eat.

[@cahallo5964]

The thing would probably still be good to eat now, I ate from one that was stored for like 3 years once.

[@Ulandus]

How this works if you make a half an inch cut?

[@jaymeselliot8181]

so the wooden holder thing is anywhere between 300-1000$ and so is the ham. so you can either spend 600 or 2000....so how much does it cost to get a master slicer over to your dinner party?

[@Herr_Jehmineh]

Do you also have a master for cutting the cheese?

[@MrKilios01]

so is this the same as a southern (US) country ham cured with salt. or is this sugar cured. been cutting these for years,but we cut them parallel to the H bone to make country ham slices.

[@MrKilios01]

[@cahallo5964]

​@@MrKilios01yeah it's also salt cured but "ibérico" refers to the specific breed of pig.

[@Tmdwuyt]

+Heracy and lunacy cured with mold?... And I didn't say rotten

[@97quadcam]

It isn't a fermentation process. You're using a cure, like that of salt and sugar to desiccate the flesh and harmful bacteria. Once the curing process is done, it is aged to give it the desired flavor. While fermentation is used in many food preparation processes this is different in that it is using desiccation to render the harmful bacteria inert rather than the promoted growth of good bacteria to kill off or ward off the bad. The mold only forms on the outside as moisture and fat renders out through sweating. It takes a very controlled process to make this meat both safe to eat and incredibly delicious. Some of the best Jamon is aged up to 3 years to give it it's desired flavor. Sounds kinda gross, but not as gross as many of the things we eat daily.

it depends on the cure the leg has. if it's tender (low cured) it'spossible but if it's tough (high cure) then its very difficult to chew and you wouldn't appreciate the favor. thin slices with tomato slices and a bold red wine is the way i eat it in Portugal (yes we also have presunto caralho)

La Tienda's Iberico hams are the best! They keep a lot longer than Jonathan says: I've had them out on the counter for several months. They do get a little mold on 'em, as he says. It won't hurt you. And you just slice that thin layer off. You can even wash the ham, when it molds, and just dry it off if you want. To me, having one of these hams out, and around, all winter is the best. Just slice a little off whenever you feel like it. No muss, no fuss, no prep, no fridge, no freezer. A 30 second, healthy snack whenever you need it. Gitchoo one.

Noooo.... save and use every bit of it, except the hard skin. Freeze the small fat pieces and even the tough, lean stuff. Use it for stock, and stew flavoring. The long strips of fat are what you use to keep the meat from drying out, when it's just sitting out on the counter.
