Description

Immerse yourself in one of Spain's most representative gastronomic traditions with 'My First Cut', an introductory experience to cutting Iberian ham in Alicante. With the help of Julio and Carol, professionals from Till Events, you'll learn from scratch how to properly cut a piece of Iberian ham. No prior experience is needed: the activity is designed so that any food lover can learn about, enjoy, and better understand one of the great products of Spanish cuisine. During the workshop, you'll learn about the main parts of the ham, the tools used by a professional cutter, and the proper way to handle them. You'll learn how to position the piece, identify the direction and orientation of the cut, and work each area to get thin, regular slices of the right thickness. You'll also discover how to make the most of the ham, reduce waste, and preserve the piece once you've started to maintain its qualities for longer. One of the special moments of the experience will come at the end of the workshop: a professional cutter will prepare the ham that you will take home on the spot. Each participant will receive 2 packets of Iberian ham freshly sliced and packaged during the activity itself, so that you can continue to enjoy the experience after leaving the workshop. In addition, you will receive a digital eBook related to slicing and a 20% discount on your next training session with Saberes y Sabores. The experience is limited to a maximum of 20 participants, fostering an intimate atmosphere and the opportunity to interact with the professionals and have your questions answered.
