Speck, 6 lbs +/- ,Seasoned and Smoked Italian Ham, Cured in the European Alps Mountains, Alto Adige IGP, Boneless and Ready to Slice, (like Prosciutto but more Savory and Smokey), Weight approx. 6 lbs, by Moser Tirolinger brand
Speck is a cured, lightly smoked ham. Although a close cousin to prosciutto di parma, speck is worthy of its own distinction when it comes to cured hams..
Speck is boned out before being rubbed down with a cure laced with spices like juniper and bay leaves. Then it is smoked and aged. That spiced cure gives speck a deeper taste that's more intense than prosciutto di Parma..
