About Ham

Ham is a processed meat product typically made from the hind leg of a pig. It is one of the most popular forms of processed pork enjoyed globally. Ham is produced through curing, either wet curing (brining) or dry curing, or by smoking. Curing preserves the meat and develops its characteristic flavor. Ham can be purchased pre-cooked or raw, requiring cooking before consumption. Popular uses of ham include sandwiches, breakfast dishes, holiday meals, and as an ingredient in various culinary creations. Different cuts and preparations of ham offer varied textures and flavors, making it a versatile ingredient.

A typical ham measures approximately 220mm in width, 170mm in height, and 220mm in length, which translates to 22.0cm wide, 17.0cm tall, and 22.0cm long. Imagine a ham roughly as tall as a standard paperback book laid flat, and its width is about the size of a dinner plate.
