Juniper Cured British Ham, 100g

Developed exclusively for Fortnum & Mason, the natural sweetness of this ham combined with smoky notes and aromatics is what makes this meat so special. It is aged for a year which makes it a relatively young ham, but this means it has plenty of complexity in terms of breadth of flavour, while the use of older sows means that there is plenty of depth.

The hams are taken off the bone and then cured with salt, juniper, black pepper and bay leaves. The next stage is to lightly smoke the hams to add complexity.

Weight: 100g

Perfect pairing: Steamed asparagus and hollandaise, ripe, sweet melon, wrapped around pan seared scallops, Fortnum’s Potted Blue Stilton
