Mangalita NIA

Mangalitsa: tradition, refinement and flavor

Why We Choose Mangalița NIA Pork for Muura’s Dishes

In a culinary world that grows ever more rushed, where ingredients often lose their identity, at Muura we choose to go in the opposite direction: toward simplicity, origin, and the true taste of things made with patience.

One of the ingredients that best defines this philosophy is Mangalița pork – a symbol of Romanian gastronomic tradition and a delicacy rediscovered by those who appreciate authentic flavor.

What Makes Mangalița Pork So Special

The Mangalița breed is often called the “salmon pig” due to its high content of unsaturated fats rich in Omega-3 and Omega-6.
Its meat has a delicate texture, an intense flavor, and a tenderness unmatched by any industrial breed.
It’s the kind of meat that demands time – time to raise, time to cook, and most importantly, time to savor.

From Farm to Plate – Our Partnership with Mangalița NIA

For us at Muura, the source of our ingredients is just as important as how we cook them.
That’s why we’ve chosen to collaborate with Mangalița NIA, a local producer from Timiș County who truly respects the principles of natural, sustainable farming.

Mangalița NIA pigs are raised outdoors, fed without industrial feed, and allowed to grow at their natural pace – just like in the old days.

The result? Pure, richly flavored meat with a balanced savor – exactly what we aim to bring to every dish that bears the Muura signature.

A Taste That Speaks of Tradition and Refinement

Whether it’s a tender oven-baked Mangalița cutlet, a gourmet burger with aged pork, or slow-roasted pastrami, each dish tells the same story: respect for the ingredient, for the producer, and for the guest who seeks an authentic experience.

At Muura, we believe that tradition and refinement can coexist beautifully.
Our collaboration with Mangalița NIA isn’t just about an ingredient – it’s about a shared philosophy: True flavor begins with respect for origins.
