The origins of Jinhua ham and Jinhua ham are related to Zongze, a famous anti-gold general in the Song Dynasty. At that time, Zongze returned after defeating the Jin Dynasty. The villagers rushed to send pig legs back to Kaifeng to comfort the soldiers. Because of the long distance, The villagers salted the pork legs to make them easier to carry. The cured pork legs were red in color and were called ham. During the Southern Song Dynasty, Dongyang, Yiwu, Lanxi, Pujiang, Jinhua and other places were under the jurisdiction of Jinhua Prefecture, so the ham produced in these areas was collectively called Jinhua ham.
