Pork Belly
Pork Belly is a fatty cut of pork prized in many cuisines for slow roasting, braising and for making bacon; it appears across European and Asian dishes and is known for its rich, melt-in-the-mouth texture. Nutritionally, Pork Belly is a concentrated source of animal protein, providing about 26.6g of protein per 100g, and also supplies B vitamins such as thiamine and the mineral selenium. It delivers a high-quality amino acid profile, but is also high in total and saturated fat, so it’s most often enjoyed as an occasional or flavourful ingredient rather than a daily lean-protein choice.
