Cochinillo Asado is a traditional roast made from young suckling pig, simply seasoned with salt and olive oil, and slow-roasted whole until the skin is exceptionally crispy and the meat is meltingly tender. It originates from Castile and León, especially Segovia, where it has been served since medieval times in royal banquets and village feasts. This dish is Spain’s version of “lechón” and is still carved with a plate to demonstrate its tenderness during festive meals.

It’s a centerpiece at holidays, weddings, and Sunday gatherings, particularly in historic taverns and traditional Castilian restaurants.
