A large proportion of pork chops come from the pork loin, i.e. the back. This part of the animal provides tender, flavorful meat.
Valens Farms is located in Montérégie, a region nicknamed "Quebec's larder". The climate and land are ideal for farming, making this a prolific region. It's also home to the largest number of hog farms in Quebec.
It's on this rich soil that the various cereals needed to feed pigs are grown. It's worth remembering that pork is a source of protein, iron and zinc. These elements contribute to the proper functioning of the nervous system and stimulate the immune system.
The pigs raised on our land benefit from the best feed, and are raised without hormones or antibiotics.
To take advantage of the benefits of pork, we suggest a recipe for lemon, honey and thyme pork chop:
To prepare the marinade: squeeze the juice from 2 lemons, peel and chop a clove of garlic and mix with 3 tablespoons of honey, a pinch of Espelette pepper, 4 tablespoons of olive oil and 4 sprigs of thyme-serpolet.
- Place the pork chops in the marinade, coat both sides and place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (ideally marinated the day before).
- Drain the pork chops to preserve the marinade that will be used to glaze them during cooking. Grill the pork chops on the barbecue for about 4 to 5 minutes per side (depending on thickness), then turn them over to coat. Cover and let rest.
- The ideal accompaniment is a nice salad of fresh green beans with cherry tomatoes.
Succumb to this sweet meal!
