Grill sliced
bread on both sides and leave to cool. Combine ale, mustard, eggs, Caerphilly,
crème fraîche and seasoning and spread on each slice of toast. Cook under the
grill until golden brown and bubbly.
Cool slightly
and serve topped with Parma Ham
Parma Ham is
a Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) product and is 100% natural. The drying
process that Parma Ham goes through creates a ham that is very low in fat
content, with many mineral salts, vitamins, antioxidants and easily digestible
proteins. This means that Parma Ham is truly a food for everyone.
Prosciutto di
Parma is produced in the hills surrounding the Italian town of Parma.
The unique
taste of Parma Ham is dependent on the traditional production process passed
down from Roman times, carefully controlled by the Consorzio del Prosciutto di
Parma. Only hams that have passed
stringent curing regulations approved by the EU can be awarded the stamp of the
Ducal crown – a five pointed coronet logo with PARMA in the centre which is
branded onto the ham's skin. The Ducal
Crown is now a certification trademark.
