    Using unique and amazing ingredients is what I love to do the most. Today I am so excited to be able to use a $1500 Jamón Ibérico leg which is 5 Jotas. Basically the most expensive ham you can buy. I pair it up with some amazing Filet Mignon and the results are in.

    Hi Guga!
    As a Spaniard, let me tell you some trick: what you can do with the cover layer is to dehydrate it on the oven. After that you can put it on the spice mill and triturate it not too thin. You will end with "sal de jamón" (ham salt), and use it in that beautiful mignon. Maybe that is the point that are you seeking... 😋

    Hello Guga, nice video as always. I don´t usually cook Jamon because after that is to salty but as a Spanish fan I can tell you that the best recipe to combine beef and Jamon is with the Brascada sandwich, which you can surely improve it. Please try it, is very simple and delicious.

    And when you finish the iberico, the fat is amazing for cooking. I usually use it for huevos fritos con jamon, or stews, like cocido, o costillas a la riojana, with fat and bone. In Spain we have a saying “Del cerdo, hasta los andares”, meaning that from the pig we eat everything, even the walking. I wouldn’t cook that good of a ham, but I’m sure it was amazing.

    PD: it says "Jabugo", which is a town very close to where I live. I remember visiting when I was a child! It is said that there the best iberic ham is produced. That flavor ... wow! Remember: the thinner, the better, because the flavor of that thing is very intense even if you are used to it.

      Yes, we Italians and Spaniards have these "friendly fight" about what product is better, if prosciutto or iberic ham. Even though iberic ham is a more expensive, premiun and cured product, Italians are traditionally better than us on trading and commerce, and that is the reason you find a lot of Italian olive oil and other products, and these Spanish products are less popular and less known in the US, although Spain produces more pork and olive oil than Italy. But I think this is changing overtime, I guess, thanks to people like Jose Andres.

    If someone is curious about if they got the real deal, one of the Key indicators is that, at room temperature, the fat should start melting in your hands in Wagyu-like way. I've seen some people before cooking with Jamon but I enjoy it more just by itself with a bit of Bread, Tomatoes, cheese, wine... a delicacy. Bone is great for stocks as well btw! You'll need some help breaking them bones tho.

    1.) Cook an eye round confit. I have a feeling if you confit it super low and slow, then give it a crust with the torch, it will finally be the eye round steak that you’ve been dreaming of.
    2.) Asafoetida infused oil or ghee to baste a steak. It’s a resin spice from India used to give food a allium flavor. You have to let it cook in fat before using it though or else it will overpower your food. Also, beware of the quantity- a little goes a LONG way. Maybe compare it to a garlic basting?

    There are tricks to use jamon iberico for cooking meat. The most important: keep the salt at minimum for seasoning, as the jamon has more than enough salt and it would get too salty.
    You can cook the jamon and get it crispy (grill or oven, better not fry it) and then use it grounded to season the meat once cooked. It has really a concentrated flavor, so you may want to hold this seasoning a little bit or it will overpower the meat taste. It's also amazing in burgers, instead of bacon, just cooking it a bit until the fat starts dripping.
    One important thing about jamon iberico is that everything besides the hoofs is usable. The hard crust can be roasted crispy (like chicharrones) and it's delicious, you can use the bones to make amazing soups and the extra fat can be used to give amazing taste to other plates. That's a magnificent ham so use it to the max.

    Dry age experiment! Cook up 2 batches of 2 pounds of bacon. Cool the 2 batches of bacon grease. Grind the bacon to powder/crumble and mix with the grease. Use one batch to dry age one piece of meat.
    Dry rub a second piece of meat in MSG thoroughly, then cover in the bacon grease mix, and dry age as well at the same time. And of course a control.

    I'm spanish and i'll only recommend cooking this for something like a pizza or a panini, but you need to use just a little of it, it has to be very nicely chopped and you have to use a particularly mild sauce. In the end it should be like very crispy bits of really delicious rich and salty pork. Also don't mix it with any other toppings and don't use any cheese stronger than plain mozzarella because it can very easily result in an overwhelming flavor

    • @roygato3797
      @roygato3797 2 роки тому +7

      Yeah, exactly. Wrapping jámon around filet mignon seems like a waste of the two ingredients and honestly putting it in a creamy pasta feels like a war crime. If you want to pair European cured hams with anything it should be something that complements it and contrasts with its saltiness and richness, like melons, figs or salads. I think this way is just overkill and loses the individual qualities of the ingredients. Love the editing on the videos!

I did a dry brine for 48 hours with SPG ( I know it's supposed to be just salt, but that's what I wanted), then grilled indirect at about 300 for around 50 minutes total. Inside was a perfect medium rare. A Very quick sear on the fat cap and off. Just wow.
