Does anybody know how to cure ham to make prosciutto? if special spices are required and where can I get them?
thanks in advance

Quite an undertaking!

There are no "special" spices required... but you will need LOTS of salt.

Good prosciutto has a lot to do in what the pig is fed and how it is raised
