Pork stomach

Pig stomach is an internal muscular organ of a pig that is suitable for human consumption. The stomach is cleared of its contents, kept in water, washed and cooked (boiled or stewed). In the 20th century, scientists and nutritionists proved that animal entrails can be beneficial for the human body. Offal dishes are especially popular in Eastern European cuisine. Pork stomach contains a significant amount of protein, B vitamins, as well as calcium, phosphorus, sodium, potassium, iron, and manganese. When raw, this yellow-pink organ resembles a small sac. After cooking it becomes gray-brown in color, without a characteristic taste or smell. Pork stomach is boiled, stewed, stuffed with meat, porridge or other offal.
