Cooked Ham Salami

Cooked ham salami is a hybrid deli meat that combines the qualities of cooked ham and salami. It is typically made from chopped ham mixed with seasonings similar to those used in salami, such as pepper, garlic, and other spices. The mixture is then molded and fully cooked, unlike traditional dry salami which is raw, fermented, and air-dried. The result is a softer, milder, and less fatty charcuterie, with a dense and uniform texture and a pronounced garlic and spice flavor. Commonly enjoyed sliced in sandwiches or on charcuterie platters.
