Suckling Pig With Apple Puree
Dinner @ Pintxos, a new Spanish Tapas Bar in Shanghai.
My 2nd suckling pig tapas in 2 weeks.
The cube of pork was very moist.....a tad too moist with lard. And where is the crackling? That is the highlight of any roasted suckling pig. This suckling pig felt as if it were not sent through the roast.....but rather a braising pot.
The big plus on the other hand, is the combination of berry jam (blueberry I think) and apple puree. The sweetness and tartness pierced through all the fattiness, adding sparkles. In my opinion, this sauce was better than the one from "The Commune Social" and if I combine this sauce with the pig from the other side.....it would be utopian!
