Extended information

The origin of Jinhua ham is related to Zong Ze, a famous anti-gold star in the Song Dynasty. At that time, Zong Ze won the gold medal and returned it. The villagers scrambled to send the pork leg back to Kaifeng to comfort the soldiers. Because of the long journey, the villagers salted the pork leg for carrying, and the salted pork leg was red as fire, so it was called ham. Dongyang, Yiwu, Lanxi, Pujiang, Yongkang and Jinhua in the Southern Song Dynasty were all under the jurisdiction of Jinhua Prefecture, so the hams produced in these areas were collectively called Jinhua Ham.

Jinhua ham is made from the hind legs of Jinhua "Liangtouwu", combined with the special geographical environment and climate characteristics in Jinhua area and the unique curing and processing methods formed by the people for thousands of years, the products are typical local. Jinhua is located in the hilly basin in the middle of Zhejiang Province. The unique landform of "surrounded by mountains on three sides and surrounded by a river, and the basin is strewn with three rivers" provides unique natural, geographical and climatic conditions for Jinhua ham production.
