There's something wonderfully satisfying about opening the fridge and finding leftover gammon ready for lunch.
Recently, food creator @stephs_fooddiary showcased exactly that, using our Organic Nitrate-Free Gammon Steaks to create delicious weekday sandwiches from the leftovers. It's a simple reminder that great-quality meat doesn't just shine at dinner time - it can transform lunches throughout the week too.
Whether served warm straight from the pan or sliced cold the next day, organic gammon makes a fantastic sandwich filling. Pair it with crusty sourdough, fresh salad, piccalilli, mustard, or simply enjoy it with a little butter and cracked black pepper.
Why Are People Talking About Nitrates?
In recent years, nitrates and nitrites used in cured meats have become the subject of increasing public discussion.
Many conventional bacon, ham, and gammon products use added nitrates during the curing process. These ingredients help preserve colour and shelf life, but they have also attracted attention from researchers, health organisations, and the media.
Recently, there have even been discussions around whether products such as bacon sandwiches should carry stronger health warnings due to the links being explored between processed meats and certain health risks. It's an ongoing conversation, and one that many consumers are paying closer attention to than ever before.
As a result, more people are looking carefully at ingredient lists and asking questions about how their food is produced.
