Selection Palette without Norm from Extremadura pigs raised in the Dehesa of Extremadura, cured in natural drying rooms. Juicy and aromatic, marbled with pinkish white fat, very rich in oleic acid and beneficial for health. What is a Palette without Norm? A Palette without Norm is a palette from Iberian pigs that has not been certified by the quality standard for Iberian products approved in Royal Decree 4/2014. Why have they not been certified? - The pig, once slaughtered, did not reach the minimum weight of 115kg or 108kg if it is 100% Iberian. - The pig has been fed acorns, but did not reach the required 46 kg of weight as specified in the standard. There are dry years when there is not enough food in the Dehesa. - The pig was slaughtered before the minimum age of 14 months in the case of acorn-fed pigs and 10 months in the case of grain-fed pigs. - The entry of the acorn-fed pig into the montanera period did not occur within the established dates (from October 1st to December 15th) or its slaughter was carried out outside the legally set period (from December 15th to March 31st). Therefore, these Selection Palettes without Norm are of great quality and flavor, which we can offer at an excellent value for money. Do not miss out on enjoying their magnificent flavor in any meal, whether for breakfast, a snack, or to give your dinner a gourmet touch. We recommend: - If you are going to consume the Selection Palette without Norm quickly, cut it with the hoof facing upwards. - If you are going to consume it slowly, cut it first with the hoof facing downwards. - The ideal temperature for cutting is between 20-25ºC. - Between cuts, protect it with its own fat to prevent it from drying out.
