What is the difference between jamon iberico and jamon serrano?
Serrano ham (or Jamon Serrano) is a Spanish dry-cured ham. The difference is that serrano ham is normally made from a specific breed of pig — Landrace breed of white pig. Iberico ham is processed in the same way as serrano ham and prosciutto, but its name is given based on the pig it comes from — the Iberico pigs.
