Not all prosciutto is the same, and this brags by far has the best flavor and consistent quality.
And of course it’s the most expensive brand I’ve bought, but it’s worth it (that’s why I say it’s value for the money, it’s consistent deliciousness is worth the price)

This La Quercia American prosciutto is sliced paper thin, as it should be, but is not separated by paper to make getting individual slices easier. I get this when I need prosciutto for cooking rather than serving on top of, say, cantaloupe. The flavor is fantastic, but the separation of slices is not.

Yes, its expensive. But its really good. The best you will find in the US and that's going to cost you.

I first tried this Prosciutto at Mario Batali's Pizzeria "OTTO" in NYC, and then a couple of weeks later, I found it again at his restaurant Lupa. Mario Batali, for those of you who don't know, is the renowned Italian chef from Food Network with the long orange pony tail. His two Italian restaurants are always ranked #1 and #2 in New York City, year after year. He is known for his love of Italy, Italian food, and ALL THINGS ITALIAN. However, in his own restaurants, he has begun serving La Quercia Prosciutto di Americano... Simply because it is better. You must try this prosciutto if you like this meat. MUST TRY. It is simply the best prosciutto I have ever eaten (probably the best pig meat I have ever eaten, better than bacon, dare I say), and trust me, I have eaten a lot of pig.

I do understand that getting good prosciutto outside of Italy is a challenge. I get it. People don’t know it enough... or don’t like enough... So there are a lot of misconceptions on what prosciutto should taste like; as an example: most times I have to explain to the folks at the deli counter that the rind MUST be removed (!!!), and some of the fat trimmed (so the product lasts longer in the fridge... plus, you don’t want to pay premium $ for fat!). I encourage all to watch the 3rd episode of Stanley Tucci’s “Searching for Italy” with a nice segment on prosciutto you may find revealing.
Peddling this La Quercia stuff as prosciutto is simply... wrong! The quality of the meat... the process, simply are not there (and the difference can be tasted). But... fine... I’d ok with eating some meat they (erroneously and presumptuously) call “prosciutto”, even if it is not, but... I can’t even get it out of the package!!! it’s impossible to peel a whole slice off the ridiculously thin and small sheet of separating paper, so I end up scraping each slice off into some gross looking (and tasting) “paste”. Who said that prosciutto must be sliced in micron-thin slices? Is this some sort of science experiment? And, really, how expensive would it be for the producer to do a better job with the packaging? I can’t believe people give this product 5 star reviews! Will never buy again...

There's nothing to separate the slices, and it was by far the saltiest, driest prosciutto I've ever had. It all clumped together in one big dry mess of pork and salt granules.
