In Spain, as in many other countries of the Mediterranean, we focus our food on the basis of the weather and the season of the year in which we find ourselves, not only because of the cold and heat, but also because of seasonal products that we cultivate We, who like you are addicted to Serrano ham, love to eat it throughout the year. It is a food that we can not give up. When a food is so delicious, why take it from grapes to pears? I’m not saying we have to inject it into a vein. But the rise of a “tad” temperatures, is not enough excuse to give up this majar for 3 eternal months. For this reason, we want to present you with these 5 easy, delicious and quick recipes of Serrano ham. If you need good ham to make these recipes, here we present our catalog of Serrano hams. Enjoy the Ham this summer!
- Regañao: The regañao is a very popular dish in Aragon, some will say it is a coca. But no, the scolding is an Aragonese dish very easy to make. on a slightly thicker and oval-shaped homemade pizza dough, place slices of 1-millimeter thick serrano ham and piquillo peppers open in half on top. We will leave it in the oven until the dough grows slightly and has a light brown color.
- Baby beans with ham: Las habitas is one of the jewels of the Spanish garden, normally found in Navarra, although they are grown throughout Spain. On this occasion we are going to use some fried baby beans in olive oil, we take them out of the pot and drain them slightly as the fat that the ham will provide will be enough. Put in a pot the ham previously cut into taquitos, about 3 millimeters thick. When the ham is golden, add the beans and turn so that the fat of the ham impregnates them with its aroma.
- Broken eggs with ham: A silverware that if one asks for it, everyone asks for it. Fried potatoes cooked over low heat with plenty of oil and a couple of garlics. Once they are fried, drain the oil very well and add the serrano ham that has been cut into thin slices. To top it off we add a couple of fried eggs, if they can be farmyard, much better. It is obligatory to eat it with bread
- Delights of Teruel: Like the regañao, another typical dish from Teruel. It’s very simple, sliced toasted bread obtained from a loaf, add a little extra virgin olive oil with a little crushed garlic, and grated tomato. We topped the toast with a good slice of Serrano ham, if it is with Teruel Denomination of Origin, much better. So that the bread does not soften, it is better to place in the center of the tray the bowls with the oil and with the tomato and that each one is served when he is going to eat it.
- Melon Soup with Ham: A fresh and very original starter. We take half a melon and empty it and then crush it in the blender. We add a little cream to cook, a little pepper and extra virgin olive oil. Reserve it in the fridge and before consuming add the serrano ham cut into pieces.
Eating ham serrano is a pleasure. For this reason in Gastronomic Spain you can get all kinds of ham, both Iberian ham and white pork. Eat like in Spain.
