Parma ham PDO
Prosciutto di Parma is an extremely natural, healthy and wholesome product that contains no preservatives, colourings or additives. The extremely selected pork thighs, from pigs strictly farmed and bred in the area of origin, are in fact added with just a pinch of salt which, together with the dry and delicate air of the scented Parma hills, gives to the product its unmistakable flavour.
But it is not only the sweetness, famous worldwide, to make this a unique product.
Prosciutto di Parma is in fact rich in nutrients, is easy to digest and is low in calories. That is why it is a food suited to all: children, athletes, the elderly and even pregnant and breastfeeding women. Thanks to the presence of natural antioxidants it also helps to restore the body's physiological balance and to counter and inhibit the action of free radicals, the main cause of ageing and degenerative diseases.
Prosciutto di Parma may be served as hors d'oeuvre or as a single dish, it can be used to prepare refined menus, but is also ideal for quick snacks and aperitifs.
