USA: serrano jamon shaver? - 10/20/05 11:29 PM
I'm so excited! I just bought a whole Serrano ham (by Navidul) at Jungle Jim's in Cincinnati for $16/lb. Thought I could give my knives a good sharpening and go to town, but this is more difficult than I thought.
Can someone please give me advice on a shaver/slicer that I can buy in the states to use on the jamon? I know you shouldn't use a serrated knive, but are all electric shavers serrated and is that okay? which one will work? Would like to stay around $100 or so. I must cut into this thing soon!

P.S. Anyone near Chicago, there is a great little wine shop around the corner from the Four Seasons Hotel that also sells Serrano and it's inexpensive.
