Mangalitsa is delicious! Anshu Pathak calls it Mangalicious!
Mangalitsa Bellota, this block of skin-on pork backfat, is densely packed with the juicy, acorn-rich flavors of the revered Mangalitsa breed. Considered the "Wagyu Beef of pork," Mangalitsa is layered with intramuscular fat that imbues the meat with a more complex and exquisite flavor than regular pork. What's more, "Bellota" (meaning "acorn" in Spanish) denotes a pig raised on an acorn-rich diet on the "dehesas" or meadows of the European countryside, lending the meat an irresistibly sweet nuttiness that has befitted European kings for centuries.
This creamy white, rich backfat can be used like lard and other fats, lending its exceptional Mangalitsa pork flavor to fried and sauteed foods. It has a moistening effect on game meats like venison (preventing them from drying out during cooking), can be marinated and cured to create the Italian salumi lardo, or can be incorporated into pates, rillettes, sausages, and other charcuterie recipes. Whatever you use it for, it's hard to imagine a block of fat more sumptuous!

Sometimes spelled Mangalitsa in the UK or Mangalitza in the USA is a Hungarian breed of domestic pig. It was developed in the mid-19th century by crossbreeding Hungarian breeds from Szalonta and Bakony with the Serbian Šumadija breed. The Mangalica pig grows a thick, wooly coat similar to that of a sheep. The pigs were originally bred for their lard in the 1830s by Austrian Archduke Joseph, Palatine of Hungary. After the collapse of Austria-Hungary, the breed slowly disappeared, reaching a low point under Hungarian communism, where government policy combined with changing dietary habits brought it to near-extinction. The breed was revived in the early 1990s by a series of breeders, including the Hungarian Peter Toth.
