PROTEIN-RICH FOODS: THE HEALTHY AND GOURMET PANTRY
We don't have to be so repetitive to follow a diet, nor base it solely on chicken breast or natural shakes.
If you're looking to strengthen your muscle mass, take care of yourself in a healthier way, or simply follow a more balanced diet, Aragonese gastronomy is your best ally.
In Teruel, we have the perfect combination of the high mountain climate and traditional craftsmanship to obtain natural treasures.
For example, Jamón de Teruel DOP and cecina are excellent sources of protein and high in zinc, perfect for repairing muscle fibers after a hard workout.
And if we want to sleep more soundly, we'll incorporate a good artisan cheese in our dinner, which will provide casein, a slow-digesting protein that nourishes your muscles and promotes rest and recovery at night
WHICH RAW MEAT OR SAUSAGE HAS THE LEAST FAT?
If you're looking for something high in protein and low in fat, you should look for Cecina de Teruel.
Both game and veal Cecina undergo a natural process of salting, smoking with holm oak wood, and aging in the Sierra.
The result is a food that provides between 30g and 35g of protein per 100g, surpassing most fresh meats.
It's a favorite snack for athletes: tasty, clean, free of unnecessary additives, and ideal for muscle recovery.
DOES TERUEL HAM HAVE A LOT OF PROTEIN?
For those who want to watch their figure and are asking themselves this question, the answer is a resounding yes.
Teruel PDO Ham, whether whole or sliced, is a high-quality source of protein, providing approximately 30g of protein per 100 grams.
By curing naturally, the ham retains its essential nutrients.
It also provides zinc, iron, and unsaturated fats, which help protect our cardiovascular health.
WHICH CHEESE HAS THE MOST PROTEIN?
People who are focusing on their nutrition are looking for alternatives to classic low-fat cottage cheese.
During the emblematic natural process, it has a high protein and amino acid content. During the natural process, the cheese loses water, which concentrates all its nutrients.
That is, a wedge of cheese will provide us with between 25g-32g of protein.
In addition to an extraordinary dose of calcium and phosphorus, with no added sugars.
PREPARED RECIPES RICH IN PROTEIN
Don't have time, but want to eat well? Don't resort to ultra-processed foods. Traditional preserved meats from Teruel are the "fast food" solution.
Our pickled quail or classic pork loin in oil are handmade following our grandparents' recipes.
They typically provide an average of 22g of protein per serving, and offer a tender texture and authentic flavor with no artificial preservatives or colorings.
HOW TO INCLUDE PROTEIN INTO OUR DAILY ROUTINE?
Breakfast: Drizzle a little extra virgin olive oil from Bajo Aragón on spelt toast and top with thin slices of Jamón de Teruel PDO.
Snack: Always carry some cecina (cured beef), either in cubes or small slices, and snack on it after exercising or at work.
Dinner: A salad of mixed greens with shredded pickled quail.
