About Pork rillette

Pork Rillette is a rich, slow-cooked meat spread originating from French cuisine. Made by simmering pork belly or shoulder in fat until tender, the meat is then shredded, seasoned with herbs and spices, and mixed with the rendered fat to create a smooth, pâté-like texture. Traditionally served cold, it's a popular addition to charcuterie boards, paired with bread, pickles, or mustard. While pork rillette is high in protein, its richness comes with a significant fat content, including saturated fats, which should be enjoyed in moderation. It is a good source of energy and provides essential vitamins like B12 and iron from the pork, but it’s not a heart-healthy choice as part of a regular diet due to its calorie density and high fat content. Best enjoyed as an occasional indulgence, it’s a flavorful highlight of traditional French culinary heritage.
