PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Dry cured and matured for at least ten weeks, this uncooked York ham delivers a bold, salty flavour and satisfyingly firm texture. A traditional British favourite, supplied with full preparation instructions and optional cooking bag for authentic hands on enjoyment.
Often seen hanging in farmhouse kitchens of old, the York ham evokes the essence of traditional British pork curing. Its dry curing method produces a firmer, saltier joint compared to Wiltshire ham, perfect for those who appreciate deep, savoury flavour.
Prepared using age old techniques, each leg is left to mature for a minimum of ten weeks, creating a rich texture and complex taste. A 24 hour soak is required before cooking to reduce salt levels, so we recommend scheduling delivery at least 2–3 days before your planned meal.
A cooking guide is included, and an optional cooking bag is available for those without a large enough pan—making preparation simpler and cleanup easier. Whether served warm and carved at the table or enjoyed cold in paper-thin slices, this York ham makes a fitting centrepiece for traditional feasts and special occasions.
