Pork neck ham is a cold meat appetizer. The pork is cooked in the oven for two hours. A characteristic feature of pork neck ham is the natural taste of the meat, which is only slightly emphasized by pepper and garlic. You can often recognize the ham by the characteristic garlic cloves with which it is lard. According to the recipe, you need to take meat from the pork neck and bake it in a sleeve. The meat for the dish should be fresh, without foreign odors, and of a uniform pink color.
