Is Brawn Pescatarian?
AvoidNo. Brawn refers to broiled meat that is pressed into a jelly or head cheese.
Brawn and the Pescatarian Diet
Brawn, commonly referred to as head cheese, is a traditional dish made by simmering the head of a pig or calf along with other parts like the tongue and feet. Once the meat is tender, it is seasoned and pressed into a mold to set into a gelatinous loaf. The gelatinous texture is achieved through the natural collagen present in the head. Brawn is typically sliced and served cold as a part of charcuterie boards or as a sandwich filling.
