Discover why Iberico pork holds a special place in the hearts of food connoisseurs around the globe. Derived from the legendary black Iberian pigs, raised in the sun-drenched pastures of Spain, this premium pork boasts an unrivaled depth of flavor and succulent tenderness. Its marbled fat, coupled with a unique nutty sweetness, creates a taste sensation that is unparalleled.
In this remarkable recipe, we showcase the delicate yet flavor-packed Iberico Pluma, a prime cut derived from the shoulder of the Iberico pig. Revered for its exceptional marbling and melt-in-your-mouth texture, the Pluma elevates your dining experience to new heights.
To enhance the already extraordinary qualities of the Iberico Pluma, our talented chef employs a special technique-marinating the meat with shio koji. Derived from fermented rice, shio koji acts as a natural tenderizer, imbuing the pork with a velvety smoothness and enhancing its inherent flavors. Witness the magic unfold as the Pluma absorbs the rich umami notes of the marinade, transforming into a masterpiece of taste and texture.
