About Vaca gallega
Vaca Gallega, or Galician beef, is a premium meat originating from Galicia, a region in northwest Spain. Renowned for its exceptional flavor and tenderness, it is sourced from older cattle, often aged five years or more, which are pasture-raised and fed a natural diet. This slow maturation process contributes to its marbled texture and rich taste. Nutrition-wise, Vaca Gallega is high in protein, iron, and essential vitamins like B12, making it beneficial for muscle development and overall health. However, its higher fat content, particularly saturated fat, should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. A staple in Spanish cuisine, it is often enjoyed grilled, seared, or slow-cooked to highlight its robust flavors. While indulgent, its artisanal production methods and nutritional profile make it a prized choice for meat enthusiasts.
