Did you know?
- The palette is the front leg
The Iberian palette is the front end of the pig, all cured. Smaller than ham (the rear), with an intense and concentrated taste.
- Slow healing
It is naturally cured for many months; the acorns usually exceed two years. Time dries the piece and concentrates aromas.
- Acorn fat
The acorn pig was barley in a montanera, so its fat flows, shines and is rich in oleic acid. It's the good fat, the olive oil.
