Galician Beef Cachopos and Flor de Esgueva Cheese: A Mature and Powerful Flavor
This cachopo is our proposal for those who appreciate intense flavors and the character of a good cured cheese. By combining the tenderness of Galician beef with a long-aged sheep cheese like Flor de Esgueva, we achieve a rich and complex gastronomic experience.
Our cachopos are made with:
- Galician Beef: We use thin fillets of the best Galician beef, which provide the necessary juiciness to balance the strength of the filling.
-
The Intense Filling:
- Serrano Ham from the Cellar: The saltiness and curing of the serrano ham.
- Old Flor de Esgueva Cheese (Cured Sheep): This cheese is made from raw sheep's milk and is aged for a minimum of 7 months. Its main characteristic is its powerful, balanced flavor and buttery texture that melts wonderfully, leaving a persistent aftertaste with nutty notes.
- Artisanal Preparation: Hand-assembled in our workshop, with a coating that perfectly seals the meat and filling, ready to be fried until achieving a golden and crispy crust.
✨ Quality Guarantee: The Power of Sheep Cheese
This cachopo stands out from more classic versions due to the quality and flavor profile of its cheese:
- Deep Flavor: The choice of Flor de Esgueva brings a maturity and powerful character that elevates the cachopo from a simple hearty dish to a gourmet experience for adults.
- Melting Texture: Despite being a cured cheese, its buttery texture ensures that the cheese melts properly with heat, creating a smooth and homogeneous filling in the center.
🧑🍳 Cooking Tips: Respecting the Cured Filling
The key to this cachopo is to give the cheese enough time to melt despite its curing:
- Controlled Temperature: Fry the cachopo in plenty of oil over medium-low heat. It is essential to avoid high heat so that the cheese, which is denser, reaches melting temperature without burning the breadcrumb coating.
- Slow Cooking: Allow it to fry slowly, turning it carefully several times until the coating is completely golden.
- Pairing: The intense flavor of Flor de Esgueva pairs very well with a robust red wine (such as a Ribera del Duero or Rioja) or even a full-bodied craft beer.
📦 Storage and Shipping
