Prosciutto di San Daniele is a type of dry-cured ham produced in the San Daniele del Friuli region of Italy. It is made from the hind legs of pigs, which are carefully selected and raised in specific areas. The curing process involves salting the meat and allowing it to age for a minimum of 13 months, resulting in a delicate flavor and tender texture. This ham is characterized by its sweet, nutty taste and a slightly pink color. It is often enjoyed thinly sliced and served as an appetizer, paired with melons or cheeses, or used in various dishes.
