Ham

Ham is a meat product most commonly made from pork leg, which undergoes salting, smoking, or cooking. It is one of the most popular cured meats in both Czech and international cuisine. There are several main types, cooked ham, smoked ham, and dry-cured ham, such as Italian prosciutto or Spanish jamón. It is enjoyed as a cold cut on bread, as part of charcuterie boards, and as an ingredient in hot dishes such as baked pasta, pizza, soups, and stuffed pancakes. It has a delicate, slightly salty flavor and is a good source of protein.
