Raw food. Jinhua ham is a cured meat product made by special technology, which usually appears in the form of raw food. The production process of Jinhua ham includes selecting high-quality pig hind legs, curing, shaping, turning legs, washing, sun drying and air drying. The fermentation period can reach 2-3 years, making it plump and unique in flavor. Although Jinhua ham can be eaten raw, this kind of raw ham requires extremely high processing technology, which needs to be made under the most favorable humidity and temperature conditions and fully fermented in the natural environment. Therefore, Jinhua ham that can meet the raw food standard is rare.
