Nothing evokes the essence of Mediterranean cuisine better than the aroma of burning wood and the unmistakable flavor of grilled food. At Ses Oliveres Port de Sóller, we understand that the key to a good grill lies in the quality of the product and respect for its cooking time. Today we want to talk about seasonal meats and vegetables, which reach their maximum splendor when cooked over the coals.
Grilled meats: juiciness and authentic flavor
When it comes to grilled meat, selection is fundamental. We opt for noble and well marbled cuts, such as entrecote, sirloin steak or T-bone steak, which guarantee a tender texture and an unequalled flavor. Also, the veal cheek, a soft, tender and tasty meat, becomes a delicacy when cooked slowly over the coals.
One of the secrets to achieving a perfect result is the temperature of the grill. A good oak or olive wood fire provides just the right heat to seal the meat on the outside and maintain its juiciness on the inside. In addition, a touch of coarse salt at just the right moment enhances the natural flavor of each piece without masking it.
It is not the only thing we cook on the grill, if you want to know what other products of unbeatable quality we can offer, look at our menu.
In addition, we like to incorporate the best cuts in our rice dishes, for example, the Iberian pork chop rice, which we have recently recovered at the request of diners and has returned to stay.
Seasonal vegetables: an ideal complement
While meat is the star of the grill, seasonal vegetables are a must. In winter, the artichoke is one of the undisputed stars, with its tender texture and the slightly smoky flavor that the embers give it. Peppers, eggplants and green asparagus also benefit from the fire, enhancing their sweet notes and natural juiciness.
A trick to keep vegetables just right is to brush them lightly with olive oil before placing them on the grill. This not only prevents them from drying out, but also gives them an irresistible golden, crunchy touch. For extra flavor, a rub of garlic, parsley and a few drops of lemon can make all the difference.
The magic of fire and tradition
Grilling is not only a culinary technique, but an art that is passed down from generation to generation. In Mallorca, the tradition of cooking over the fire connects us with our roots and allows us to enjoy the products of the land in their purest state.
At Ses Oliveres, we celebrate this way of cooking with a selection of seasonal meats and vegetables that bring out the best of each ingredient. Come and enjoy a unique gastronomic experience, where fire, flavor and tradition merge in every bite, we are waiting for you by the grill!
