While prshut insists, it is important not to forget about it. You need to regularly drain the brine, and sprinkle the dish with salt.

After two weeks, the meat should be put on the grate. After prshut need to press down and leave for another 2-3 weeks.

This final stage is followed by the final part of the preparation of prosciutto. Well stale meat should be washed, dry with a towel and leave to dry in a suspended state. Drying requires a draft and an air temperature in the region of 12-16 ° C.

The drying process takes on average 10 to 24 months. During this time, the meat loses up to 30% of its original mass.

The ham should be compressed and placed in a cool place. The process of smoking takes about a day. Upon their expiration, you can proceed to the dried prashuta, a little later - to the cutting.
