A ham that is not cooked or cured prior to preparation. When selecting a fresh ham, look for one that is encased in a layer of firm white fat, and contains meat that is well marbled with coloring that may range from a grayish-pink from younger hogs to a light rose color from older hogs. The meat can be stored in cold temperatures for up to 5 days.
