Brand: Maldonado

Breed: Purebred Iberian

Diet: Bellota Top quality: pig fed exclusively on acorns (more)

Origin: Extremadura

Cut: Loin

Producer: Maldonado

Slicing: Thinly cold-sliced with a slicing machine and hand packed. Different packs in an order may come from different pieces and batches.

Processing: The outer fat is removed from the loin and the meat is seasoned and marinated for 48 hours, then stuffed into colon casings and dried and aged for 8 to 12 months.
When the sausages reach the optimum point of curing, they are stored in the tradition of the matanza (pig butchering season) in Extremadura by placing them in an earthenware jar and covering them with white lard from the same pigs.
Ingredients: Ham from bellota-grade purebred Iberian pigs, paprika, garlic and salt.

Production: Bellota-grade purebred Iberian pigs. A purebred Iberian pig comes from parents of 100% Iberian bloodstock (not cross-bred) and accounts for less than 5% of the country's Iberian pigs. The animals add at least 37% of their initial weight on a diet consisting mainly of acorns, grass, roots and tubers.

Enjoying your lomo: To completely enjoy its flavor, remove it from the plastic pack 20 minutes prior to consumption.
Once vacuum is lost, remove the lomo from the plastic pack.
Keep between 0 ºC and 5 ºC (32 ºF to 41 ºF).
