Hungarian Karaj Bende

by Bende. Product of USA.

Karaj is Hungarian style pork loin. It is dry cured and cold smoked for several days, which makes it incredibly smoky. It has a delicate, tender, almost juicy texture. Very lean. It isn't spicy even though it is packed with flavor. The closest comparable meat is German cold-smoked pork loin lachccchinken. These two meats are commonly mistaken for smoked salmon because flavor and texture indeed reminiscent of smoked salmon.

Ingredients: pork loin cured with salt, sugar, sodium lactate, ascorbic acid (vitamin C), sodium nitrite.
