17 Mar The best iberico cold cuts by Olmeda Origenes now in an exclusive packaging, sustainable & adapted to new market trends.
- The first advantage is the difference between plastic (vacuum) and our crystal package.
Vaccum in plastic presses the slices and makes the fat to move out from the slices and melt. Due to fat loss the slices will dry, lose properties and flavour. This pressure sticks slices one to the other, even when there is a plastic separator. The sticking makes difficult the serving and in most cases the slices break and the plate will not be nice for serving. In addition, plastic releases pollutant substances that are harmful for health.
Our iberico in jars are hand cut by professionals and packed in a vacuum jar. They stay as they were cut and have enough space to move, so that the fat does not separate or melt. This format also favours serving, every slice separated from the other perfectly and gently, following the cut. Crystal jars are washable, reusable and recyclable, and don’t release harmful substances.
- The second advantage is that our iberico hams in jar are respectful with the environment since the raising of the pork until the serving.
- It is especially indicated for Food Service as it is 100% profitable and measurable: you buy 80 grams and serve 80 grams. In any restaurant, when opening a ham it stays open for several days or weeks. During these days the ham dries and some of the first cuts need to be discarded every day. In addition, when there is not an expert who knows how to cut ham perfectly there are losses of product as the slices break, are too thin or too thick…
- A great advantage of iberico in jars Olmeda Origenes is that it is knife-cut by experts: the plate looks cut by a professional with an excellent presentation. They cut every slice and place the pack inside the jar carefully. For unpacking just take the whole block and place the slices on a plate. It is important to follow the order as the place will follow the streaks of fat of the ham, which will give the plate an incredibly professional look.
- Ideal for retail: Innovative packaging, original gift, or as a portion, to make tapas at home. You can open it and serve within the next 5 days but always maintaining the product in its original packaging and without variations in the cold chain.
