About this Recipe

Chef George Duran “Brava-tized” his mom’s recipe for Pan de Jamón. Sweet and salty and absolutely delicious, this Venezuelan treat is traditionally served during Christmas, but it’s fun to make any time of year. Chef George updated and simplified the recipe by using store-bought puff pastry instead of making a yeasted bread dough from scratch.
