6. AT WHAT TIME DURING NEW ZEALAND’S CUISINE HISTORY DID NOSE TO TAIL EATING PEAK
There is once again a growing interest in minimising waste in any form and Beef+Lamb NZ are bringing this to the fore with Nose to Tail month. Most of us don’t think twice about a steak and kidney pie, lambs fry and bacon, or liver pate but might not have been introduced to other types of offal (organ meat).
A. Heart
Nose to tail eating isn’t just a great way to minimise food waste but is also extremely nutritious. Offal (organ meat) is a particularly nutritional powerhouse packed full of protein, omega-3s, iron, zinc, selenium, copper, potassium, phosphorus, folate, B vitamins, vitamin E, and vitamin A – all of which are key for optimising health and wellbeing. Not only are offal cuts nutrient dense, the nutrients are very bioavailable – meaning your body can absorb all of the nutritional goodness in a very easy way. Meaning you don’t need to eat a lot of offal in one sitting to reap the nutritional benefits. So, if you’re looking to jazz up the Kiwi classic “meat and three vege” and get more nutrition into every bite, why not experiment with a nose-to-tail food?
