SOMMELIER
Contino Reserva 2001 (Companfa Vinicola del Norte de Espana - CVNE). This complex and elegant wine is impressive for its structure and vivacity.CHEF'S NOTES
Pieza de lomo ibérico asada con tomillo sobre zorongollo tibio
Lomo or loin
One of the most highly prized cuts of Iberian pork, appreciated for its juiciness, texture and flavor. The fat is harmoniously absorbed into the meat.
In my opinion, one of the best ways to cook Iberian pork lomo is to roast it. Since it is a fairly lean dense cut, this technique allows you to control the exact degree of cooking for tender and juicy results. I like to pair roasts with "zorongollo," a red pepper salad typical of Estremadura, often served in the summer.
