Esta receta de mejillas de cerdo con jerez se puede cocinar lentamente en la estufa durante 2 horas, o si se utiliza una olla a presión, estará lista en unos 30 minutos.
Es un plato que puede adaptarse a diversas ocasiones, como una noche de tapas o cuando se necesita un plato reconfortante para el invierno.
Utilicé una mejilla de cerdo de Swaledale Butchers.
Este es un trozo de carne y grasa, no las mejillas de cerdo ajustadas de lo habitual.
Pero... no te preocupes, la grasa se derretirá en la salsa haciéndola aún más deliciosa.
También guardé alrededor de la mitad de la grasa en rodajas para usarla como lardones para sopa.
Otra receta que utiliza carne de Swaledale Butchers se puede encontrar aquí: carne corned real.
Calienta 1 – 2 cucharadas de aceite de oliva en una gran sartén, luego agrega la cebolla.
Cocina suavemente durante 10 – 15 minutos hasta que esté suave y ligeramente coloreada.
Retira de la sartén y reserva.
Tuesta las mejillas en la harina con sazón.
Agrega un poco más de aceite a la sartén y sube el calor.
Dora las mejillas de cerdo por todos lados en tandas.
Baja el calor a medio.
Regresa las cebollas que pusiste a un lado a la sartén, junto con la carne.
Agrega el ajo, el comino y el pimentón y cocina durante un minuto, luego vierte el jerez.
Asegúrate de raspar el fondo de la sartén y mezclar todos los sabores.
Vierte el caldo de carne y lleva la sartén a ebullición.
Cocina a presión alta durante 30 minutos.
Espolvorea con hojas de perejil y almendras tostadas fileteadas.
Delicioso servido con arroz o puré de papas.

Season both sides of pork cheeks with salt and pepper.
Sprinkle with flour and press it into the meat to coat thoroughly.
Heat clarified butter in a pan over medium-high heat.
Sear meat on both sides until richly browned, adjusting heat lower if necessary.
When cheeks are browned, reduce heat to medium.
Transfer cheeks to a plate to rest.
Remove all but 2 tablespoons fat from the skillet.
Add onions, carrots, and celery to skillet.
Cook and stir until softened and sweet, seasoning with a pinch of salt.
Add vinegar and stir to deglaze the pan.
Pour in the cider and chicken stock.
Bring to a simmer.
Add sage and rosemary.
Reduce heat to low and transfer cheeks back to pan.
Cover.
Cook until fork tender but not falling apart, 2 to 3 hours depending on the size of the pork cheeks.
Transfer to a plate.
Bring liquid to a boil over high heat, skimming off fat as it rises to the surface.
Reduce volume of liquid by about 60 to 70%.
Sauce will start to thicken up.
Taste for salt and season as needed.
Transfer cheeks back to liquid.
Continue to cook over medium-low heat until cheeks are heated through and tender and sauce is thick enough to coat cheeks.
If you want extra sauce, you can add an extra tablespoon of flour to the veggies when they are sautéing.
Then add an extra cup of cider and broth, and proceed as directed.

Pork cheeks are exactly what their name implies: the slip of meat in the hollow of the cheek, underneath the animal's eyes.
Serious Eats / Chichi Wang What makes cheeks so good?
Relatively lean, yet very moist meat.
There are few parts of the animal for which this is true.
But cheek meat is like hock meat—the same kind of lean meat connected by lots of tissues and collagen.
You might not have the advantage getting bone and cartilage in the mix, but cheek meat is so good on its own
If you can get your hands on some, pound-for-pound it's a much better deal.
The cheeks will be good braised any which way.
I can never get enough of a Sichuan-style red-braise with chili bean paste (made from fermented fava beans and chiles), fermented black beans, soy sauce, wine, and sugar.
Or, try this Italian braise with tomato sauce and red wine.
The sauce is just one step away from being a complete meal with the addition of pasta, spaetzle, or polenta.

Pork cheeks, as the name would suggest, are the little nuggets of flesh found in the cheek of the pig.
Not to be confused with the jowl, which is the surrounding area of the face and is more fat than meat.
The cheeks are meaty little portions marbled with fat, which make them melt-in-the-mouth tender once slow cooked.
Often overlooked, these are a cheap little cut and make a stew or casserole that little bit more special.
As they are quite underused, you may need to order from your butcher especially.
Due to the fat content which melts away during cooking, they shrink quite a bit so bear this in mind when purchasing.
2–3 per person is a good main portion size.

This dish is perfect for preparing in advance.
While it requires a bit of effort, the result is absolutely worth it.
It’s the epitome of comfort food—a casserole with wonderfully tender meat, infused with the aromatic warmth of caraway and a subtle, earthy hint of anise.
In my opinion, it’s elegant enough to serve at a dinner party.
The Nordic countries, particularly Sweden and Finland, have a deep appreciation for aniseed flavours, especially in the form of their unique salty liquorice, which people from other countries often find off-putting.
Personally, I adore it, but this dish offers a much gentler, more delicate aniseed flavour.
Set the oven to 14°0C.
For the pigs' cheeks: season the pigs cheeks and dust with a little flour.
Heat some olive oil in a cast iron pan if you have one and fry the cheeks until golden-brown on both sides.
Remove from the pan and set to one side.

Im in the mood for…. a “Quickie”… because there’s only one hour left for lunch time and I don’t have the time to… cook… aaawwwwwhhhhhh!!!!!
Surely it has happened to you many times… you are so concentrated blogging (for example) that when you take a look back to your watch is sooooooo late and you don’t have the time to go out and buy whatever you needed, you just have to “make it” with imagination and creativity… basic ingredients for a good quickie.
Luckily, I had 4 pork cheeks, garlics (6 cloves), 2 thyme dried springs, olive oil (that’s something I always have), salt and black ground pepper.
Turn the player on and by the time “Black Velvet” is finished, you have your dish inside the oven.
First of all turn on the oven heat at 200ºC.
Take the 4 cheeks and wash them under tap water, dry and cut the greaseast parts away.
Get an oven tray and drop some olive oil (1 spoontable for each cheek), salt and pepper the cheeks and place on the tray.
Smash the garlics with the peel on and throw into the tray, add the thyme springs and drop some more olive oil on top.
1 Hour in a middle rack at 200ºC and the result is a miracle… your lunch is ready!.
While the cheeks are in the oven you can do some roasted potatoes or some rice or steamed veggies… or any other thing you are in the mood for… you’ve got one hour.
Just get inspired by the music and let yourself gooooooooo…. he, he, he, blame it on spring time!!!

Braised pork cheeks in wine sauce is a delicate yet powerful dish.
Although the meat is tender and melts on your tongue, the flavour is outstanding.
I encountered this dish on a tapas night in San Sebastian, Spain.
Lost in a dark corner of a little plaza, in a place called “La Cuchara de San Telmo,” a heavenly place!
It’s their star dish; they no longer have to write it down on the menu board since it’s so popular.
It is served as tapas, which means a small portion.
This recipe is my take on this famous dish called Carrilleras de cerdo al vino tapa!
The trick here is to cook slow and long pork cheeks!
They are so underrated; they should be the most expensive and exquisite piece of pork, but lucky for our wallets, it’s not…
Cheeks got all the flavour, and it’s a relatively lean part.
