Particularity

As particularidades da Carne do Jarmelo são a resultante das características dos bovinos que se adaptaram e desenvolveram em sintonia com as condições edafo-climáticas existentes na região de origem, designadamente com a altitude e com a existência de alimentos disponíveis ao longo do ano, tomando inclusivamente o nome da região como nome da própria raça (raça Jarmelista) O resultado é uma carne tenra, muito suculenta e muito saborosa.

History

In the cattle arroyo of 1870 it was said: “… the Jarmelista breed is located in the former municipality of Jarmelo, which today is part of Guarda… This grace is without dispute not only the best in the district but perhaps the best in the country and I even dare say that it can rival many foreign races in many respects.” And he continued: “… don't judge Your Excellency that I exaggerate the good qualities of these animals… today there are still many pure individuals as a reservoir of the breed, which if they don't help them, they will soon disappear…” Later, in 1904 João Tierno stated “The vacum cattle ranch in Jarmello does not correspond to any intermediate form either; it seems to us, as will be said shortly, that it is not a sub-race, but a true independent ethnico group…”. This author also stated “… This autochthonous breed has been almost extinct in recent decades, but thanks to a group of people and organizations driven by the desire to make known and preserve the territorial heritage of the region, through its most differentiating elements, such as the meat of the Jarmelo, your extinction has been avoided.

Know-how

O saber fazer está patente no regime de produção destes animais explorados numa região de montanha caracterizada por pastagens de altitude, com condições climáticas de grandes amplitudes térmicas. O sistema de exploração é extensivo, onde predomina o minifúndio. Os animais de raça Jarmelista são animais rústicos, perfeitamente adaptados a todas as condições desfavoráveis características da região onde se inserem. Os animais adultos alimentam-se directamente das pastagens naturais com fornecimento de forragens, aveia, centeio (palha e grão) e feno, em épocas adversas e de maior necessidade alimentar (por exemplo durante o Inverno ou nos períodos de gestação). Outros produtos agrícolas poderão contribuir para a alimentação dos animais, tais como o milho, o azevém, a luzerna, ervas e fenos dos lameiros ou ervas e arbustos espontâneos dos montes. Os animais jovens (até aos 8 meses de idade) são alimentados com leite materno, tendo também acesso ao pasto e forragens, nomeadamente aveia, centeio (palha e grão) e feno. As cobrições ocorrem naturalmente durante todo o ano, uma vez que os machos acompanham sempre a vacada.

CARNE MIRANDESA - DOP

Very tasty and succulent meat, with a firm consistency and slightly moist, obtained from animals of the Mirandesa Breed raised in its original manor. The color ranges from light pink to light red, with white fat evenly distributed, with moderate intramuscular distribution in the steer. The muscle is fine-grained, with a firm, slightly moist consistency. It comes from Mirandesa breed cattle that have great bulk, with a brown color that darkens towards the ends. On the head, the protruding mottle stands out, covered with a tuft of golden hairs. Two parts of these carcasses that are protected by the Denomination of Origin have a particular reputation: the Posta and the Rodião, which can only be designated as “Mirandeses” if all legal rules and requirements are complied with.
