Description At Señorío de Montanera they have made a commitment to the gastronomic heritage of Extremadura. The acorn-fed Iberian doblado loin is based on a traditional recipe typical of southern Extremadura. Due to its completely handmade production, this unique product had practically disappeared from our memory, due to its lack of generational transmission. The recovery of this recipe has been a traditional process, perfected with significant research and development work, the result of which is perceived through sensory qualities capable of conquering any palate. The Señorío de Montanera doubled loin is made with the whole piece of 100% Iberian acorn-fed loin, marinated with garlic and salt, and covered with a very thin layer of acorn-fed Iberian lard. When stuffing it, the piece is folded in half, which is why it acquires its characteristic name “folded”. Once stuffed, its contour is surrounded with strings that perform an essential function in maturation. Due to being thicker than the rest of the traditional Iberian loins, it requires a curing period of more than six months. More than six months of curing are necessary for the Lomo Doblado to reach its optimal point of maturation. The expert hands of a Master Pork Maker frequently supervise the state of the pieces and tie their strings manually. The Señorío de Montanera double loin has a flavor typical of the most exquisite gourmet products. It stands out for its juiciness that is difficult to describe, whose texture melts into the palate, flooding the mouth with the purest flavors of the pasture.
