Description

Villani is recognised as one of Italy’s best producers of Prosciutto di Parma. Prosicutto aficionados maintain that around 16 to 18 months is the sweet spot for prosciutto. Before that, it has not developed enough flavour, and after that it loses its delicate, soft and luscious mouthfeel. As the texture of the prosciutto can be soft, it is important to ensure your slicer is perfectly sharp.
