Nutritional values

Anyone who takes a bite here has really been lucky: the meat of wild "bristle cattle" contains particularly high levels of B vitamins, iron and zinc. Among other things, the trace element protects against colds and ensures healthy skin.

Want some vegetables with that? Then serve a green salad or steamed Brussels sprouts as an additional side dish.
