Conservation of Sobrasada

Sobrasada is a product that keeps well in cool and dry environments. The ideal is to keep it in the refrigerator, where it can last up to several months if kept in a closed container and away from light and air. It can also be frozen, but it is advisable to do it in small portions, to avoid thawing more than necessary. In any case, it is important to verify that the sobrasada does not show signs of deterioration, such as mold, unpleasant odor or color change.

Presentation and consumption of Sobrasada

Sobrasada can be consumed in many ways, but the most typical form is spread on toast. It can also be used to make snacks, enrich soups or stews, or as an ingredient in pizzas or pasta dishes. In any case, it is important to remember that it is a fatty and caloric product, so it is advisable to consume it in moderation and accompanied by other lighter foods, such as vegetables or fruits.

Pairing of the Sobrasada

Sobrasada is a very tasty and aromatic product, which can be paired with different drinks depending on the time of day and the type of food to be served. In general, sobrasada combines well with young red wines, with body and moderate acidity, such as those made with the Manto Negro variety. It can also be paired with craft beers, especially the ale type, which usually have malty and spicy notes that fit very well with the flavor of the sobrasada.

Recommended temperatures of the Sobrasada

The sobrasada can be consumed both cold and hot, but in general it is advisable to serve it at room temperature, so that its aromas and flavors can be better appreciated. If it is going to be used as an ingredient in a dish, it is convenient to heat it gently before adding it to the preparation, so that it integrates better with the rest of the ingredients.
