This last week, we spent three days on a cured meat stage. From about 9am till 6pm, we traveled in and around Parma visiting different aspects of cured meat, mostly prosciutto. Each day was super exhausting, but tons of fun! I think I had my fill of cured pork for a while. At least for a few days! Imagine, all of the prosciutto and salame you can eat, with hunks of parmigiano thrown in for good measure, all washed down with endless Lambrusco. Three days in a row.

Disgusting and something best forgotten if I ever want to really enjoy pork again!

A LOT of prosciutto!!!
