- Jamón Iberico. The name alone is enough to send any Spaniard swooning. This world-famous ham, derived from the famous black Iberian pigs of Southwest Spain, is unmatched in its texture, richness, and marbling. The secret? The pigs are allowed to roam in pastures and oak groves and feed naturally on grasses, herbs, and, most importantly, the oil-rich acorns or “bellotas” that fall from oak trees in the fall.
The curing process of this prized meat takes a minimum of twelve months, although some producers cure their jamónes for up to forty-eight. Properly carving jamón is a specialized culinary technique that very few have perfected. The carving of jamón ibérico is a field dominated by men, but that didn’t stop Laura Vásquez, one of José Andrés Group’s talented chefs at Mercado Little Spain in New York City, from pursuing this goal. Laura utilizes three different types of knives to carve a jamón properly. This delicacy is often served on festive occasions and is the perfect accompaniment to Spanish cheeses, olives, or bread brushed with olive oil. It pairs well with red wine, but Laura recommends serving it with a delicious bottle of Spanish sherry. Taste this delicacy yourself at one of José’s restaurants serving Spanish cuisine including Mercado Little Spain, Spanish Diner, The Bazaar or Jaleo.
