Tempus Charcuterie King Peter Air-Dried Ham

This is a recipe that one of Tempus’ founders, Tom, developed in memory of his late father, Peter, who adored air-dried hams of all styles. Tom has taken elements from many of these hams to create a genuinely unique product that shows off the attributes of the pork while enhancing it with a blend of black pepper, juniper and gentle chestnut wood smoke.  Sweet and nutty with a hint of smoke, resulting in an incredible depth of flavour.
