What is salchichón Ibérico and what are its main ingredients?
Salchichón Ibérico is a Spanish cured sausage made with Ibérico pork, seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic, and spices, stuffed into natural or synthetic casings, and then cured to develop its characteristic flavour. Cinco Jotas salchichón Ibérico is made with 100% Ibérico acorn-fed pork, using prime lean cuts and tenderloin.
How does the flavour and texture of salchichón Ibérico differ from other types of salchichón?
Salchichón Ibérico stands out for its more intense flavour and juicy texture, due to the quality of the Ibérico pork used and the prolonged curing process that enhances its flavours and gives it a smooth texture, in contrast to other types of salchichón that may use different quality meat and have a shorter curing process.
