What is prosciutto?
“The word prosciutto, which translates to “ham” in Italian, is made only from the hind legs of pigs and is aged during a dry-curing process. There are typically two types of prosciutto: prosciutto cotto, which is cooked, and prosciutto crudo, which is uncooked, yet cured.” Read all about it here:

2-4 Hors d’oeuvre per person served half an hour before dinner
