Bayonne Ham, Sliced – Jambon de Bayonne, 3 oz, 6 Slices by Delpeyrat, France
Delve into the delicate flavors of Bayonne Ham, a renowned French delicacy crafted by Delpeyrat. This cured ham is celebrated for its subtle sweetness, tender texture, and light salinity, offering a sophisticated taste profile that sets it apart from traditional cooked hams. Each slice is expertly cut from the widest section of the ham to ensure thin, fine pieces that enhance both flavor and mouthfeel.
Produced in the Adour River Basin—the heart of Bayonne ham production—this ham undergoes a meticulous drying and aging process in the region's cool climate, which imparts a distinctive light hazelnut flavor and soft texture. The result is an exceptional product with a tender, chewy bite, a bright pink hue, and a sweet, nutty essence.
What makes Delpeyrat's Bayonne Ham truly unique is its adherence to traditional methods and its IGP (Indication Géographique Protégée) certification, guaranteeing its authenticity and quality. The salting process is done by hand, using natural salts from Salies de Béarn, and the ham is free from GMOs, nitrates, nitrites, preservatives, or gluten. The slow, careful curing in a natural environment ensures that this ham achieves its perfect balance of flavor and texture.
Elevate your charcuterie board or enjoy it simply with a glass of wine — Bayonne Ham is a truly artisanal product that embodies the rich culinary traditions of France.
