How to cook with Añana Salt Flakes
Our favourite way to prepare this incredible pork is to season with salt and pepper and grill or sear the presa, then cook at medium high heat until done. The centre of the steak should still be pink. This cut has less fat than other types of Iberico pork, so be careful not to overcook. Let it rest for 5 minutes, then cut thin slices to best enjoy the flavour.

Valle Salado de Añana
Salinas de Añana is home to one of the oldest industries in the world: Salt, an essential element for the survival of the human species, has been produced here uninterruptedly for more than 7,000 years.
The Valle Salado Foundation was established in 2009. It is a non-profit organisation charged with securing the future of the site. One of its main goals is to produce salt using the thousand-year-old know-how of the local salt makers who employ traditional environment-friendly techniques. This goes to make one of the world’s finest salts used by Michelin starred chefs as testament to its exceptional quality and the special flavours of its unique trace elements.
