You never know if you don't ask - Prousciutto di Parma


(Richard Morris) #1

The other day I bought 400g of fine sliced prosciutto and we’d almost reached the heel of the ham so I asked the guy at the Deli counter - “hmmm what do you do with that?”

He said “Oh there’s no meat left I’ll chuck it”.

I said “I’ll buy it from you, and render it”

He said “Do you want this bit too”, and pulled a piece from the display that the next new ham was sitting on to be displayed.

And that was how I got two pieces of perfect ham fat for making krispy keto croutons from - for free. Dice into 1cm cubes and fry, and toss the crispy cubes over a soup.

One day keto will be mainstream and we’ll be the keto hipsters remembering when we could get some awesome fat for free.

One day keto will be mainstream and we’ll all pay dearly for cuts of fatty meat like that!!! Not to mention shortages on butter, lard, HWC, etc. etc!

This is exactly why I don’t really “spread the word” on how great Keto is! I’m greedy that way. :grin:
