Prosciutto Crudo

Prosciutto crudo is one of the two types of prosciutto, characterized by being raw or uncooked. It has origins in the pre-Roman, Etruscan times. Until recently, the production of prosciutto crudo was entirely artisanal, but today, the production is also done on an industrial scale due to a large global demand.


It comes in two varieties – sweet and savory. Prosciutto crudo is usually consumed as it is, wrapped around grisini, or paired with melon and figs. It is recommended to serve it at room temperature, sliced thinly, but not too thin.
