Parsleyed Salt-Cured Ham (Jambon Persillé)

This is a traditional preparation of Burgundy, but now it is found all over France. It makes a beautiful charcuterie first course, with the bright green parsley and deep red ham glistening in the wine-scented jelly. Serve it with mustard and cornichons on the side, accompanied with a chilled white wine.
