Jamón is Spain’s culinary treasure, a slow-aged ham with a deep red color and firm texture. The aging process may create small white crystals in the ham. These are amino acids found in quality hams and cheeses and are completely safe to eat. Always serve jamón at room temperature to enjoy its fullest flavor.

Your sliced jamón should be stored according to the package instructions. Serve slices at room temperature. Keep leftover slices refrigerated in an airtight container and consume within 3 to 5 days.
