Iberian Pluma with Confited Shallots 

In our series of spanish recipes in accordance with the mediterranean and paleo diet we recommend trying this Iberian Pluma recipe: a delicious iberian pork recipe, which we believe to be the best pork in the world.

The Iberian “Pluma” is a cut of the Iberian pork that is located in the front of the loin, next to the Presa, and has a characteristic triangular shape (hence its name which means “feather”).  It is elongated and not very thick, weighing between 100-150g, and only two are extracted from each channel. It is highly valued for its finesse, with a tender and delicate texture and a pleasant and tasty sensation on the palate
