Common questions

How long does prosciutto last in the fridge?

2–3 months.

Can you freeze prosciutto, and for how long?

Yes. 1 month.

How can I tell if prosciutto has gone bad?

Throw it out if it smells off, feels slimy or sticky, shows mold, or has changed color. Storage times assume it was handled safely and kept cold the whole time.
