The presentation, not a recipe — the whole point of jamón ibérico de bellota is what the ham is, not what you do to it. Hand-cut to translucency, served at room temperature on a wooden board with bread and Manchego.

Chef's tip
If you must slice with a machine instead of by hand, set it to translucency and accept the cure will lose some character. Never serve cold — the fat must liquefy at body temperature for the full almond-and-acorn finish.
Every Thursday: one cut, what it’s called around the world, the best substitute, one dish, and one useful tool.
