CARVING SPANISH HAM
To serve jamón (ham in Spanish) consists not only in cutting slices thinly and put them on a plate as you like. It is much more than that. You just need a bit of good taste and practice to surprise everyone. For this reason one of the most difficult tasks is to carve Spanish ham (serrano or Iberian).
This task always correspond to a master hamcutter or master carver, as a professional ham cutter, a "sculptor" or "carver" who specializes in cutting the whole ham or shoulder from start to finish, shaping it and getting the most out of it. His cutting technique is an art in achieving the perfect slices so that our palates enjoy each bite to the fullest. It is important to emphasize that the cut must be made with the right tools.
Thanks to our experience we offer to our customer the unique chance to have his own Spanish ham carver at home and enjoy the experience of slicing. Send us an email to get a free estimates,
We also provide Iberian ham and shoulder (paletilla) to gift you the whole experience at home. We invite you to visit our Iberian Ham section.
