Cured Gascon Pork cheek

A very small part of the pig, the cheek is a choice cut for its rarity and the quality of its fat.
It can be used like ventrèche, offering an even more pronounced flavor.

In Italy, authentic pasta carbonara is made with pig's cheek.
Our cheek is cured for 5 to 10 months on a rack to develop
its aromatic palette.
