Differences between Iberian, acorn-fed and cebo ham: what you should know before buying
Before buying an Iberian ham, it is important to know the differences between the different varieties. Acorn-fed Iberian ham is one that comes from 100% Iberian pigs and feed exclusively on acorns and herbs from the pasture. Iberian cebo ham comes from Iberian pigs raised on feed and pasture, while 100% Iberian ham is one that comes from 100% Iberian purebred pigs and are raised freely in the pastures feeding on acorns during the montanera season. It is important to keep in mind that acorn-fed Iberian ham is differentiated by its intense and aromatic flavor, its juicy and soft texture and its exclusive origin from 100% free-range Iberian pigs that have eaten acorns. While Iberian bait ham, although still delicious, does not have the quality and variety of flavors that acorn-fed Iberian ham has. It is important to take these details into account when buying an Iberian ham to be able to choose the one that best suits our tastes and needs.

How to enjoy Iberian hams: tips on how to preserve and cut COVAP hams
To fully enjoy COVAP Iberico ham, it is important to know how to preserve and cut them correctly. In general, it is recommended to store Iberians in a cool, dry place, and wrap them in aluminum foil or plastic wrap to prevent them from drying out. It is also important to use a specific knife for cutting ham, which is at least 25 cm long and has a smooth, narrow blade. To start cutting the ham you have to make some superficial cuts on the outside of the ham, so that the layer of yellowish fat (the rind) is removed. Afterwards, you have to start cutting thin slices from the club or countermace, which is located in the part closest to the animal's hind leg. It is important to cut the ham in the opposite direction to the direction of the fibers, which will allow the slice to maintain its integrity and not break. By following these tips you will be able to enjoy COVAP hams and shoulders in a comfortable and simple way, and taste all their flavor and texture without losing quality.
