Snake River Farms Kurobuta Bone-In Ham

FLAVOR PROFILE

• Sweet, juicy, tender, lightly smoked

WHY WE LOVE IT

• Kurobuta, or "black hog," is the Japanese term for the Berkshire breed, the source of the famous Japanese kurobuta pork lauded for its deep color and fine marbling. This whole ham is prepared bone-in, retaining even more of the sweet and juicy flavor for which kurobuta hams are renowned. Its rich savoriness is further enhanced by expert curing, using an old family recipe and light smoking over hardwood chips.

Receiving Instructions

• Ham ships frozen with dry ice, which may have evaporated during shipment. This is normal. Please take care not to touch any remaining dry ice with bare hands.
• Upon receipt refrigerate ham, or freeze to enjoy at a later date. It will keep, unopened, refrigerated up to 3 weeks or frozen up to 3 months. For best quality, we do not recommend refreezing ham once thawed.

• To retain more natural juices, leave in original packaging while thawing. It is normal for natural juices to accumulate.

Preparation Instructions

• Preheat oven to 325°F.
• Remove ham from packaging and place, fat side up, in large roasting pan.
• If using half-ham, place flat side directly on roasting pan.
