What is Jinhua ham?

Jinhua ham is a traditional delicacy that I've come across in my foodie adventures. It's a type of dry-cured ham from the Zhejiang province in Eastern China. What makes it unique is its production process that takes up to three years, giving it a rich flavor and aroma that can't be found in other types of ham. The Chinese have been making it for over a thousand years, so it's steeped in history. If you're a fan of cured meats, Jinhua ham is a must-try.
