On my recent visit to the Chapolard’s Charcuterie Farm in Gascony I learned about and made these fantastic little Ham-ettes. You can get an idea of how to do it from this video, but you should also consider coming to Claddagh Farms, meeting Dominique, and trying for yourself!

One Response to “A Look Inside French Charcuterie—The Noix de Jambon”

    Great video about the noix de jambon. Three questions:

    1. During the salting, is the meat kept under refrigeration or at room temperature?

    2. After salting, is the salt rinsed off before sprinkling with black pepper?

    3. After smoking, can the meat be kept at room temperature, or must it be refrigerated?

    Thanks for the podcasts.
