On the occasion of the 559th edition of the Bayonne Ham Fair (April 14 to 17, 2022), France Bleu and Maison Pierre Oteiza offer you your IGP Bayonne ham. Answer a question, form below, and win this emblematic product of the South West.
Made from traditional white pork, the Jambon de Bayonne IGP from Maison Pierre Oteiza matures slowly in the Aldudes collective dryer over the four seasons. Its flesh is an even red, its fine texture is supple, tender and soft, its taste is fine and its aromas subtle.
Your taste buds are already salivating… You have until April 17 to enter our competition to win one of the 4 bone-in Bayonne hams up for grabs.
Conservation and tasting of your Bayonne ham
Bayonne ham on the bone can be stored at room temperature in a canvas bag or cheesecloth in a dry, ventilated room for 6 months. Placed on a ham clip, in optimal tasting conditions, the ham will deliver its aromas and flavors to you. Once the ham has been started, protect its slice with a little oil and parchment paper.
Using a sharp blade, cut a few shavings or thin slices and let them melt in your mouth. Lightly pan-fried, Bayonne ham can be eaten with a gourmet salad or sliced with a piperade.
