What is the difference between Iberian shoulder (paleta) and Iberian ham (jamón)? 

Iberian shoulder comes from the front legs of the pig, while Iberian ham is obtained from the hind legs. This means the shoulder has a shorter curing time and a more intense, pronounced flavor. It also tends to have a juicier texture and a more concentrated aromatic profile. Although both come from the Iberian pig, the shoulder stands out for its deeper, richer taste.

This is due to its smaller size and higher proportion of intramuscular fat. Ham, on the other hand, is usually milder and more balanced on the palate.

How long does sliced Iberian shoulder last once opened?

Once opened, it is recommended to consume sliced Iberian shoulder within 2 to 3 days. It is important to keep it refrigerated and well protected to preserve its quality, as this prevents loss of aroma, flavor, and texture.

On the other hand, many of you ask whether it can be frozen. Yes, it can be frozen if it will not be consumed within a few days. Ideally, it should be kept in its original packaging or well sealed to prevent freezer burn. For consumption, it is recommended to thaw it slowly in the refrigerator so it does not lose texture, flavor, or quality.
