About Pork heart
Pork heart is a nutrient-dense organ meat prized in various cuisines worldwide, including Eastern European, Latin American, and Asian dishes. It has a firm texture and a rich, meaty flavor, making it a versatile ingredient in soups, stews, or grilled dishes. Packed with protein, pork heart is an excellent source of essential nutrients such as iron, zinc, and B vitamins, particularly B12, which supports energy production and brain health. It also contains CoQ10, an antioxidant that benefits heart function and cellular health. Despite its high mineral content, pork heart is relatively low in fat compared to other cuts of pork, making it a healthier choice for those watching fat intake.
