Ibérico Cold Meat Platter

Preparation

A typical selection of Ibérico cold meats includes ham (jamón), cured loin of pork (lomo), Spanish red sausage (chorizo) and or salchichón. All these cold meats come from different parts of the Ibérico pig and are prepared and cured using different methods in order to achieve different flavors. The most celebrated cold meat is the Ibérico ham, but lomo, chorizo or salchichón are also well worth trying. Arrange the slices of the different cold meats on a wide dish.

Although individually each cured meat may require a more precise wine pairing, together they go well with a young, fresh and fruity red Rioja wine.
