Prosciutto is an Italian ham that has been seasoned, salt-cured, and air-dried, but not smoked. It can be expensive, but a little goes a long way. You may also find it labeled or sold as Parma ham. This type of ham has been made in Italy since Roman times, the name coming from the Latin word meaning, "dried of liquid." Prosciutto di Parma, the variety most Americans have heard of has been praised for its flavor for over two thousand years. However every region in Italy that has pigs makes some variety of Prosciutto but only a few are available outside of Italy.
