This product is fully cooked and ready to eat. For sandwiches, simply layer the slices on bread with your favorite condiments and toppings. To warm it, you can briefly pan-fry the slices, add them to a hot pan with a little butter or oil, or heat them gently in a microwave. It can also be incorporated into casseroles or pasta dishes towards the end of cooking to ensure it stays moist and tender. Avoid overcooking to maintain its delicate texture.
