BEST-KNOWN IBERIAN CUTS OF IBERIAN PORK
After the surprise that you will discover that a pig has its own Iberian lizard , we are going to talk about the best known Iberian cuts of meat, the Iberian feather, Iberian prey and the Iberian secret.
- Iberian fan
The menus of the most innovative restaurants are including in their menu the iberian or fan. The Iberian fan covers the ribs of the Iberian pig at the top of them. A juicy cut of Iberian meat and grateful to the pocket. Together with the Iberian lizard, it is a cheap cut of Iberian meat and therefore highly demanded in any slaughterhouse. The name Iberian fan comes from the shape of this cut, a thin trapezoid that having many veins of intermediate fat from the lean easily reminds us of a Spanish fan . Having an important vein of fat, if you cook the Iberian fan on the grill with high heat you will enjoy a real delicacy for the palate.
- The Iberian Feather
The Iberian feather is located between the shoulders or front legs of the pig. The name Iberian Feather comes from its elongated and triangular shape. It has a very correct proportion of lean and fat is increasingly common in the menus of important celebrations. Once it has been well churruscado on the outside, we suggest leaving the tender Iberian feather inside to appreciate all the flavor of the best Iberian meat.
- The Iberian Dam
The Iberian dam, also called in some regions, ball. It is one of the juiciest cuts of the Iberian pig. It is part of the spine headboard. It is common to find the cured Iberian prey that is usually called commercially as Iberian tenderloin. From each pig almost 1kg of Iberian prey is obtained.
Like all previous cuts, the Iberian dam is spectacular on the grill. Another option is to roast the whole Iberian pork in the oven. Surprise, you can also dare with a Carpaccio of Iberian prey.
- The Iberian Secret
We finish with the Iberian secret. With a flat and large shape. It is said that its name comes because it is a hidden part between the bacon and the shoulder that can only be seen if the muscle is cut horizontally. Another version about the name of the Iberian secret comes from the legend that the butchers kept it for their own consumption.
Both the Iberian feather, the Iberian secret or the Iberian prey have been and continue to be used to produce high quality Iberian sausage. As these lean pieces have their own contribution of fat, the flavor of the sausage is tastier than those sausages in which bacon and other less delicate lean pieces are added.
