The DOP raw ham of the Langhirano hills: pork legs cured with sea salt and mountain air for 12 to 36 months, sweet where other hams are salty, sliced to silk in the city's salumerie.
Parma ham was praised by Roman writers, but the modern Prosciutto di Parma DOP is a discipline of geography: legs salted and aged in the valley south of the city, where air moving between Apennines and plain dries them slowly. Only salt is permitted. The consortium's ducal crown brands each approved ham, Langhirano cures most of them, and the September Festival del Prosciutto opens the curing houses to visitors.
