cured meats
Salted, dried flesh
Cured meats are meats preserved through salting, smoking, drying, or chemical treatment rather than refrigeration alone.
The process draws out moisture and inhibits bacterial growth while developing distinctive flavors.
Ham, bacon, prosciutto, salami, and jerky are all cured meats.
