Jamón is so important to Spanish cuisine that it can be found lurking in almost everything. But with so much of this tasty product available, what makes ibérico so special? Is it truly worth the price? You bet. Let’s start with that gorgeous animal first…

This gaditano tapa —which literally translates to “dressed potatoes”— involves little prep or special skill to make, but the best quality produce & olive oil make this dish a knockout. My recipe is based on versions I’ve had at both Bar Terraza & Casa Rafael in Cádiz. Let’s get cooking!
