More info
Parma Ham PDO (“Prosciutto” in Italian) is a typical product of Parma with very ancient roots. Historians date this particular way of processing and maturing ham to the period when the Po Plain was inhabited by the Gauls. So you could say that Parma Ham has French ancestry! Indeed, at that time, the region of Cisalpine Gaul included part of Northern Italy, with the city of Parma at its centre.
Of course, the standards for processing this product today are extremely rigorous and precise, including rules and legislations on hygiene, storage and preservation of the meat. Nonetheless, the ingredients have not changed in over 2000 years. Nothing but pork and salt. The quality of the product derives from the artisan skill involved in processing it, and the particular climate found in the Province of Parma.
