Jamón Serrano

Jamón Serrano is a traditional Spanish dry-cured ham commonly served thinly sliced on tapas, sandwiches and charcuterie boards; it is prized for its concentrated savory flavor and long curing tradition in regions across Spain. Nutritionally, Jamón Serrano is a high-protein cured meat providing about 31.1g of protein per 100g, and it also supplies B vitamins and selenium from the pork. Because it is a cured product, it is relatively high in salt and saturated fat compared with fresh lean meats, so it’s best enjoyed in moderation or swapped for leaner/low-sodium alternatives when you want a similar cured-meat flavor with fewer downsides.
