Local gourmet meat, cheese and wine shop is running a special on these two meats this week. I have had Black Forest ham (deli style) as well as Black Forest Bacon before, but never the Schinken (Prosciutto style). Which one should I go with, and what cheeses would you pair it with?

TIA!

Try the Schinken if you've never had it. It would have to be sweeter, I'd think.

I had both when I lived in Germany. They would serve both with grapes and brie.

You are dealing with the unfamiliariness of German versus Italian and Spanish versions of salt cured hams. I know I can speak with many years of experience with Germans that they don't comment on the subject at all.
