Mangalitsa Szalonna - Pork Lardo 350g

Mangalitsa szalonna is a cured Hungarian pork lardo made by cold-smoking thick cuts of fatback for an intense aroma and an irresistibly buttery texture.

This versatile szalonna is perfect for adding flavour to roast meat. Slice it thinly and place it on top to create a melting outer layer, infusing your dish with a mouth-watering smoky aroma. You can also use it to prepare a gourmet side dish of Brussels sprouts with a twist, or cut it into cubes, spear them, and roast over an open fire until deliciously crispy.

The free-range pork lardo is naturally rich in Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, minerals and vitamins. Mangalitza is also naturally low in cholesterol, making it a healthy choice with potential heart-protective properties.
