Ham is pork from a leg cut that has been preserved by either wet
or dry curing and with or without smoking. As a processed meat,
the term "Ham" includes both whole cuts of meat and ones that
have been mechanically formed which are almost always made
using cuts of pork other than a leg cut. Ham is made around the
world, including a vast number of regional specialties. The
preserving of a pork leg as Ham has a long history, with Cato the
Elder writing about the "salting of Hams" in his De Agri Cultura
tome around 160 BC. “We” have basically two cuts of Ham: Shank
portion and the Butt portion. The Shank has less lean meat, but is
by far the tenderest. Salt cured (Country Ham) requires extensive
rinsing prior to consumption to remove most of the Salt. Sugar
Cured (City Ham) may be consumed as-is.
