Prosciutto Cotto a Fette, or sliced cooked ham, is a staple of Italian cuisine known for its delicate flavor and tender texture. Unlike its cured counterpart, Prosciutto Crudo, this ham is carefully cooked and usually spiced with a mix of herbs and seasonings. It's made primarily from pork leg, seasoned, brined, and slowly cooked to preserve moisture and enhance its mild, savory profile. Prosciutto Cotto is a good source of protein, making it a satisfying addition to sandwiches, salads, or antipasto platters. However, it can be high in sodium due to the curing process, and some varieties may contain preservatives. For a healthier choice, look for brands that emphasize natural ingredients and minimal additives. Whether folded into a panino or served alongside fresh vegetables, Prosciutto Cotto offers a flavorful touch to everyday meals while reflecting Italy’s rich culinary traditions.
