Charcuterie


















Charcuterie, French for a butcher or deli. Charcuterie also refers to a particularly decadent cuisine which is focused on the enjoyment of cured meats paired with bread and cheese. Above you see an assortment of fine meats enjoyed by myself and my dear friend Christopher. From left to right you have procutto de parma, bresola, jamon iberico, guanciale, and serrano jamon. Each meat cured and sliced paper thin held its own unique texture and flavor. Most memorable among them the precious jamon imberico. Perhaps the most rich, savory, and incredibly intense meat to ever pass my lips, jamon imberico has forever impacted the way that I will taste.
