Expensive ham doesn't get more expensive than genuine Iberico ham. A leg of Iberico ham can cost as much as $1,500 a pop, is aged for three years and is the product of exclusively acorn-fed pigs. Carving Iberico ham is truly an art form and we challenged Molly Baz to learn how to do it, with the help of Jaume Guerra from Despaña (@despananyc).
Join Harold Villarosa (and special guest Hip Hop Philanthropist A$AP Twelvvy) at The Bronx Brewery as he makes steak okonomiyaki, a Japanese-style savory pancake. Okonomiyaki begins with dashi, a flavorful stock that Harold makes with locally-sourced kelp and dried mushrooms. While the dashi simmers, you can work on the steak and sauce. Harold uses NY strip steak for this recipe, but feel free to use whichever cut your heart desires. When it actually comes to making the okonomiyaki, mix the dashi into the batter followed by cabbage and scallion and then start making pancakes!

Put that ham on a big wooden board, provide a blade with which to slice it, and a vehicle with which to devour it .Then watch your guests turn into a pack of wolves, leaving you with just a bone…and the memory of the best holiday party ever.
