Iberian Pork Presa

Presa is the pork neck, made from the muscle above the pig’s neck: when boned and salted, it becomes one of the most famous Italian cured meats, namely Coppa in the North or Capocollo in southern Italy. If, on the other hand, you want to enjoy the fresh cut, it is perfect to grill thanks to the considerable presence of internal fat.

Chef’s Advice

The position of the Iberian pork Presa causes the intramuscular fat to coat it, giving it a unique flavor.

Iberian pork Presa can be cooked in any way given its high versatility: whole, filleted, grilled, roasted, or even baked, as long as short cooking times are always observed.

Iberian pork, unlike what one might imagine, must be treated like beef, so it is strictly served rare.

What makes Iberian pork special?

100% purebred Iberian pigs have an unmistakable flavor resulting from the incredible marbling of fat and the genetic peculiarity of assimilating oleic acid from acorns (bellotas). Blázquez pigs grow freely or in semi-freedom in vast areas where they can move around peacefully: this contributes to stronger, more toned muscles. In addition, the animals are allowed to live longer lives-more than 11 months-going beyond the minimum required by Spanish law.
