Mangalitsa Pigs for the F Word Kitchen

Mangalitsa pigs in F Word TV Show - from YouTube.

Here's a clip on the F Word Kitchen (Gordon Ramsay's restaurant) and some Mangalitsa pigs.

According to Ramsay:

• rarest breed of pork ever in their kitchen
• beautiful meat
• stronger, "gamier" flavor
• fattiest pig in the world, perfect for salami, cured loin and bacon

I take issue with the following:

• He forgot the ham. Mangalitsa pigs make the best ham.
  

• Mangalitsas don't taste gamey. They taste meaty, like read meat. I've eaten a lot of Mangalitsa. None of it has tasted gamey like venison.
  

• The pigs aren't particularly skittish. Other breeds of pig are a lot more jumpy. Mangalitsa pigs are particularly calm.

In any case, I'm happy to see Mangalitsa pigs getting some media attention. I think it is great that restaurant groups like Besh Restaurant Group and SU Restaurant Group in Milwaukee are committing to Mangalitsa pigs and pork.
