    Dang, that's going to be sooo hard. Day after day, night after night, prosciutto, prosciutto, prosciutto.

    Really, its a curse. Pass it on to me, I need some suffering to cleanse my soul. :)

    Yummm, SODIUM!!! :rofl: 

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    @fishlessmanIs that a leg from Costco?  If so, how is it?  What else are you going to do with it?  That is a hunk of pig!

    cosco. its not as tangy as i had hoped, very mild as is, fairly tender, salt pops when cooked, better than my local market and it broke down to just under 5 bucks a pound. overall a good buy. its a total experiment, going to render the fat down for peas or maybe warm cabbage, maybe make a prosciutto soup base/consume, prosciutto cups filled with cheese and pheasant eggs, thats my short list, looking for ideas.  i cut some fat off and without thinking, tossed it, later realized that could be some good stuff either as a lard, butter/lard, tossed in beans, not making that mistake again

    I got one of them too. It is a lot of prosciutto.  I have not opened it yet.  I am thinking I will soon though, so I too am looking for ideas.

    No surprise but great in stuffed chicken for example and chop some up to add flavor to pasta sauce. Sliced thin and wrapped around hard thin Italian bread sticks as an appetizer.

    I do the same thing myself every year. It always ends with me just eating even more of the $hit that I like :D

    Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

    Status- Standing by.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    Saltimboca, use in place of pancetta/guanciale in carbonara, caprese salad(even though tomatoes suck right now)

    Prosciutto, roasted peppers and mozzarella sounds fantastic... Even sub the mozzarella for some provolone  =)
