Jamón+Serrano+9

Jamón Serrano (Mountain Ham) Jamón serrano is a Spanish, cured ham. The most common way to make this ham is to coat it in sea salt and hang it up for 12 to 18 months. In the mountains of Spain, this dish is publicly served by the chef. People are free to walk by and take a slice of the ham sitting outside. Usually there is a little bread or cheese to eat it with. The Spanish take pride in serving others their food.

Just like we Americans have sandwiches, the Spanish have jamón serrano. Jamón serrano is a regular in Spain. This is eaten either as a snack or a meal. Many of the Spanish people eat this meat as a snack, while others may eat this as a separate flavor to complete their favorite meal.
