Field-raised slicing block
A rectangular block of boneless cebo de campo Iberian ham with attractive marbling, delicate saltiness and a smooth, aromatic character.
Its regular shape makes it easy to produce even slices, control portions and reduce trimming loss for tapas, bocadillos, buffets and delicatessen counters.
This 50% Iberian cebo de campo ham is trimmed and shaped into a rectangular boneless block. The regular shape makes slicing easier and helps produce consistent portions from the beginning to the end of the piece.
It is particularly useful when speed, presentation and yield matter, while retaining the balanced flavour and marbling associated with cebo de campo Iberian ham.
Use thin slices for tapas, bocadillos, breakfast service, buffets, sharing boards and mixed Spanish charcuterie plates.
The block shape also works well for sandwich production and busy counters where regular slices, predictable portions and reduced trimming help control food costs.
Serve with cured cheeses, olives, roasted almonds, crusty bread, tomato, warm eggs, mushrooms or simple potato dishes.
The meat has a red colour with characteristic veins of pearly-white fat and a bright appearance.
Its flavour is delicate and lightly salted, with a pleasant aroma and a homogeneous, relatively non-fibrous texture.
