a cold cut that everyone likes

Cooked ham is made from the hind leg of the pig, boned and cooked slowly at about 70°. Its characteristic colour, which denotes a quality product, is soft pink surrounded by a thin layer of fat. Thanks to its delicate taste and its digestible meat, cooked ham has acquired a very important role among Italian delicatessen meats.

Veroni quality

Veroni cooked hams stand out for the meat that is carefully selected and processed according to a production process that follows the strictest parameters of food safety and respects food trends. Produced with herbs or “natural”, flavourings, made with high quality, selected meat, cooked, steamed, baked or roasted, Veroni cooked hams satisfy all tastes thanks also to the particular “Italian style” cooking used throughout the Veroni production process. The method of cooking using a mould  allows for weight loss so that the salt content and excess “low-melting” fat can be expelled and thus it is possible to obtain a product of higher quality, with a softer texture and more intense flavour.
