THE TEXTURE
Iberian Ham: TextureThe two aspects to bear in mind with regard to the texture of an Iberian Bellota Ham are the firmness and fluidity of the fat.
    The firmness of the fat: The Iberian pig has well-defined fat qualities that distinguish it from other races. The greatest quality is its increased softness as its fat is softer than any other jamón.

    The fluidity of the fat: This depends on the infiltration of the fat. In hams produced from Iberian pigs it is more fluid due to the concentration of lipids.
