Lagrima Iberica is a cut of meat from the Iberico pork attached to the rib.
Lagrima Iberica is a very tender well marbled cut that can be prepared quickly over a hot pan. Lagrima is a beautiful, flavourful cut of pork that melts in your mouth - we call it lagrima which means teardrop due to its shape! Grilled medium rare, it has a juicy, tender bite and a full mouthwatering flavour that speaks of its free-range acorn fed source.
Lagrima Iberica is a thin strip of boneless baby back rib, each piece weighs between 70 and 90 grams.
Iberico pork comes from free-range Iberico pigs indigenous to Spain. They live an ideal life rooting for acorns under cork and holm oak trees. Their diet provides a complex flavour and a fat that literally melts in your mouth. The exercise provides the beautiful marbling that distinguishes Iberico pork from any other.
Our favourite way to prepare this incredible pork is to season with salt and pepper and either pan fry or BBQ over a medium high heat until done. The centre of the lagrima should still be pink. Let it rest for 5 minutes, then cut thin slices to best enjoy the flavour.
You will receive one frozen bag of lagrima iberica, delivered on ice pads. Thaw to room temperature before cooking. Please note that weights can vary from pack to pack, so expect a slight variation on the weight of your lagrima pork.
