Cupim Zebu
Cupim Zebu
Cupim is een bijzondere Braziliaanse cut van het Zebu rund. Bijzonder? Zeker, want cupim kan niet van elk rund gesneden worden. Het zebu (of Brahma) rund heeft namelijk een bult bovenop de schoft, die ook wel cupim genoemd wordt. Een hele zachte en mooi gemarmerde cut, die eigenlijk alleen te vinden is in de Braziliaanse keuken. Dikke aanrader om zeker een keer geprobeerd te hebben!

Cupim is a special Brazilian cut of Zebu beef. Special? Certainly, because cupim cannot be cut from every beef. The zebu (or Brahma) cattle have a hump on top of the withers, which is also called cupim. A very soft and beautifully marbled cut, which can actually only be found in Brazilian cuisine. Highly recommended and definitely worth a try!
The Cupim is a piece of meat that will not be on the counter at the butcher around the corner. How ideal is ordering meat online? We cut the cupim from zebu beef to size immediately after arrival and then quick-frozen it, so that it arrives to you super fresh and without loss of quality.
The Zebu
Zebu cattle were created by crossbreeding various (lesser known) Indian breeds and are highly sought after in various countries in South America due to their thick skin. The thick skin ensures that the cattle can withstand the heat (super useful in those hot countries!) and are not bothered by insects. The most remarkable thing about the breed is that they have a large noticeable hump on their back (above the withers). It is not entirely clear what exactly the bump is for. But you don't have to tell them in Brazil that it is a culinary tour de force.
Traditionally, the Cupim is first fried and then thickly smeared with butter and cooked for hours (4 hours!) in a thick layer of aluminum foil (often wrapping). In Brazil, when it has been lying over the fire for hours, they sometimes stick a wire through it. Does this go smoothly through the meat? Then your Cupim is ready! Unpack your package of meat, but be careful of the hot aluminum foil, pull the meat apart with your hands if necessary and sprinkle it with some salt and pepper. Result? Super soft pulled pork with a fantastic exclusive taste..
