Lusog Notes
This festive dish is high in protein which is neccesary for growth, development and repair of body tissues. It is also high in calcium that is needed for strong bones and teeth.
Chef`s Tip
Use non-iodized salt in the curing solution. Iodized salt, when used for curing, will leave a metallic after taste to the ham.
