Tasso ham is a smoked, spiced, and cured meat, a specialty of south

until cooked through.
Though tasso may be eaten on its own, it is more often used as part of a flavor base for stews or braised vegetables. It is used in dishes ranging from pasta to crab cakes to soup and gravy. Appropriate to its roots, tasso is most often found in recipes of Creole or Cajun origin, such as jambalaya.[1]
