Shank | Baladi Beef | 900g
A slow-cooking baladi beef cut rich in connective tissue. It becomes tender and flavorful with gentle, long cooking in stews and casseroles.
Ingredients: Frozen meat
Pack weight: 900g
A baladi beef shank (locally raised, grain fed, 12+ months) from the hard working lower leg, so it's dense with connective tissue. That collagen is the point: it melts into gelatin over long cooking and gives the deep, familiar body baladi is loved for.
Baladi beef, locally raised and handled through our professionally managed cold chain, so it reaches you clean, sealed, and ready to cook. Keep frozen; thaw in the fridge before cooking, not at room temperature.
This cut needs time and moisture. Simmer or braise it low and slow until the meat gives and the collagen turns silky; it rewards patience and punishes a rush.
Suited for: slow cooked stews, soups, and braises where you want deep, familiar flavour. For smaller pieces in a faster stew, reach for the baladi meat cubes; the shank is for when you want the body that collagen gives a long braise.
