Cinco Jotas offers a gourmet experience like no other, preserving the purity and distinction of its historic Ibérico breed while captivating even the most discerning palates with its alluring textures and aromas. Indulging in Cinco Jotas Ibérico ham is an assurance of unparalleled satisfaction.
To ensure the freshest slices of premium Cinco Jotas Ibérico ham, we have our Professional Master Ham Carver at ARC expertly carve each piece. Our deli-style packaging makes it convenient to open and serve, providing you with a hassle-free ham experience.
STORAGE & CARE FOR IBRICO HAM BELLOTA
For optimal storage of Iberico Ham Bellota, it is recommended to keep the ham in a cool, dark, and dry place. If you plan to consume it over an extended period, refrigeration will maintain a consistent temperature for longer freshness. However, if you intend to enjoy it within a few days, leaving it outside the refrigerator is also acceptable.
When you’re ready to savor the ham, immerse the unopened package in hot water for about 30 seconds. This process strikes a perfect balance between flavor, aroma, and texture while preserving the ham’s characteristic color and transparency. It also facilitates separating the slices for a delightful display.
Once opened, it is advisable to store the ham in the refrigerator, properly sealed in its original packaging, to prevent excessive drying.
SERVING RECOMMENDATION
Remove the Iberico Ham Bellota from the fridge approximately 30 minutes before consuming. After 15 minutes, open the package and arrange the slices on a plate. Ideally, the ham should be enjoyed at room temperature, around 24 degrees Celsius.
For an authentic experience, we encourage you to pick up the slices with your fingers as you indulge in the ham—the Spanish way.
There are numerous delightful ways to savor the ham, such as pairing it with bread, Cladivm Virgen Extra Olive Picudo oil, and tomato, creating sandwiches reminiscent of our offerings at the Jamoneria Bar and Tasting Room. It can also be enjoyed as an appetizer alongside Squere Piquitos Pan de Tapas. With its incomparable flavor and lingering aroma, this ham has the power to elevate simple dishes into gourmet delights.
