About Torresmo

Torresmo is a crispy, savory snack made from pork belly or pork rind, a popular staple in Brazilian cuisine. Known for its crunchy texture and rich flavor, it is traditionally seasoned with salt and fried until golden brown. Torresmo is often enjoyed as a standalone snack, paired with traditional dishes like feijoada, or served as a topping for rice and beans. Nutritionally, it is high in protein and provides energy due to its fat content. However, it is also calorie-dense and contains high levels of saturated fat and sodium, which may not be ideal for those with dietary restrictions or concerns about heart health. Consumed in moderation, Torresmo can be an indulgent treat that showcases the richness of Brazilian culinary traditions, but excessive consumption may contribute to unhealthy eating patterns.
