Jamon Iberico is here!

A few months ago, KCRW's Good Food (my favorite podcast) did a little segment on Jamon Iberico, which is considered by many to be the best ham in the world. It is the best of its kind, encompassing a quality that is equivalent to Kobe beef and Beluga caviar. Until recently this delicious cured pork was only available in Spain, but not anymore. Iberico can now be pre-ordered through Tienda.com. I also discovered that Iberico can be found on the menu at Jaleo restaurants here in the Washington DC area.

I remember wanting to blog about the breakthrough of Jamon Iberico in the United States when the news came out this past summer. I completely forgot about it though. GothamWhore sent me this link yesterday and reminded me all about it. Thanks! :-)
