Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Begin by slicing the Jamón Ibérico into thin, even slices. Aim for about 1-2 mm thickness to fully appreciate its texture and flavor.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Baguette

    Slice the fresh baguette into 1/2 inch thick pieces. Toast or serve fresh, depending on your preference.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Arugula

    Rinse the fresh arugula under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel. Place it in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper. Toss lightly to combine.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Plate the Ingredients

    On a serving platter, arrange the sliced Jamón Ibérico in a circular pattern or in a fanned-out style. Place the toasted baguette slices alongside.

  2. 5

    Serve with Arugula

    Add the dressed arugula on the side of the platter. Serve immediately to enjoy the combination of flavors and textures.
