Compango Asturian Stew Pack is a 270g Bienastur compango pack — the essential trio of cured meats for authentic Fabada Asturiana. It contains cured pork belly, chorizo and morcilla. Bienastur is one of Asturias’s most respected charcuterie producers. As a result, this is everything you need to transform a pot of white beans into one of the great dishes of Spanish gastronomy.

About Iberico Pork

Compango is the collective name for the cured meat component of Fabada Asturiana. This is the great bean stew of Asturias in northern Spain and one of the defining dishes of Spanish gastronomy. A classic compango pack contains three components: cured pork belly, chorizo and morcilla. Together, these give fabada its extraordinary depth of flavour. Bienastur is one of the most respected producers of traditional Asturian charcuterie. They work in the mountains of Asturias using time-honoured methods and the finest local pork.

Used correctly, compango transforms a simple pot of beans into something magnificent. The fat from the cured belly melts slowly into the broth. Meanwhile, the smoked paprika depth of the chorizo and the earthy intensity of the morcilla develop during cooking. Together, they create a sauce of incomparable character. This is Spanish peasant cooking at its most glorious — simple ingredients, properly sourced, producing something genuinely extraordinary.

How to Cook & Serve

To get the very best from Compango Asturian Stew Pack:

• Use as the meat component of a classic Fabada Asturiana — soak large white fabes beans overnight, then slow-cook with the compango for 2 to 3 hours.
• Alternatively, add to a simple lentil or chickpea stew for extraordinary depth and richness.
• Slice the chorizo and morcilla and serve as part of a Spanish charcuterie board.
• Furthermore, use the cured belly as a flavour base for braised vegetables or potatoes in the Asturian style.

Perfect Pairings

Compango Asturian Stew Pack pairs beautifully with:

• Large white fabes beans or Puy lentils for a classic fabada
• Asturian cider — sidra natural — poured from a height in the traditional style
• Crusty bread to mop up the extraordinary stew juices
• A robust Mencía from Bierzo or a young Rioja alongside

Storage: Keep refrigerated once opened. Remove from the fridge 20 minutes before serving. This allows the fat to soften and the aroma to develop fully. Slice thinly and serve simply.

However you cook it, Compango Asturian Stew Pack brings the authentic flavour of Spain to your table. It is a genuinely exceptional ingredient that rewards simple, confident cooking. In addition, the three-meat combination works equally well in a lentil stew. Moreover, leftovers reheat beautifully and the flavour deepens overnight.
