Speck Mager is a lean, cured pork product originating from Austria and Italy, particularly in the Alpine regions. A cousin to prosciutto and traditional speck, this variant is made from pig hindquarters and is distinguished by its lower fat content, hence the name "Mager," meaning "lean" in German. Seasoned with a blend of salt, juniper, and other herbs, it undergoes a smoking and air-drying process, giving it a delicate, smoky flavor. Speck Mager is rich in proteins, essential amino acids, and minerals like iron and zinc, making it a valuable addition to a balanced diet. However, it is also high in sodium due to the curing process, which may not be ideal for those monitoring their salt intake. Often enjoyed in European-style charcuterie boards or as a savory topping for salads and pasta dishes, Speck Mager offers a flavorful yet lean option for cured meat enthusiasts.
