About Cow mince

Cow mince, also known as ground beef, is a versatile ingredient widely used in global cuisines, from American burgers to Italian Bolognese and Mexican tacos. Made by finely chopping or grinding beef, it typically includes a balance of lean meat and fat, though fat content varies depending on the cut. Cow mince is a protein-rich food, supplying essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins, which support energy production and immune function. Leaner options are considered healthier, as high-fat varieties can contribute to excess saturated fat intake. It's a good option for creating hearty, satisfying meals but should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. When selecting cow mince, look for a lower fat percentage, or drain excess fat during cooking to reduce calorie content and improve its nutritional profile.
