Sliced Chicken Jambon
The difference between jambon and roast begins in the production method. A roast is cooked directly, while a jambon is cured first: the meat rests in a salt solution before cooking. Curing distributes moisture evenly through the meat and softens the texture.
That difference carries into shelf life. Sliced jambon holds 120 days where sliced roasts stop at 90; the preservative effect of curing creates that gap. On the plate a jambon gives a softer, moister and more homogeneous slice — the grain visible in a roast is not pronounced here.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between jambon and roast?
A roast is cooked directly; a jambon is cured first and then cooked. Jambon is softer and more homogeneous, roast more fibrous and textured.
Why is the shelf life longer?
Curing distributes salt evenly through the meat and creates a preservative effect. That is why jambon carries 120 days against the roast's 90.
Does it contain pork?
No. This product is made from chicken. Jambon here describes a production method, not the animal.
