You can use these ham slices straight from the package for sandwiches, wraps, or to add to a charcuterie board. For a warm dish, gently heat the slices in a skillet over medium heat until they are warmed through. They can also be added to casseroles or layered into omelets. The thin slices cook quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. They are also great folded or rolled for a quick snack.
How it differs from similar foods
Uncured ham differs from traditionally cured ham because it does not contain added nitrates or nitrites for preservation and color. This can result in a slightly different flavor profile and a more natural pinkish-gray color compared to the brighter pink of cured ham.
