- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
- Remove the tenderloins from the marinade and dry them well with paper towels. Discard the marinade. Place the tenderloins on a sheet pan and rub them all over with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, until a meat thermometer inserted in the center reads 125 degrees. Remove from the oven and cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil. Allow to rest for 10 minutes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- In a food processor, combine the chopped herbs with the garlic, crushed red pepper, a generous pinch of salt, and enough olive oil to make a paste. Brush the paste on the outside of the pork rib roast.
- Toss the onions with olive oil and salt and place in the bottom of a roasting pan. Add the thyme, bay leaves, and two-thirds of the cider. Place the pork on top of the onions and place in the oven. Roast the pork until it has developed a lovely brown crust, 20 to 25 minutes. Check on the pork and stir the onions and cider if they are starting to burn. Add more cider when the level starts to go down.
- Lower the oven to 375 degrees F and roast until an instant-read thermometer reads 150 degrees F, 30 to 35 minutes. If the crust on the pork starts to get too dark, cover it with foil. Remove 1 1/2 cups of the cider from the bottom of the roasting pan and reserve for the applesauce.
- Let the pork rest for at least 15 minutes before carving. When ready to carve, remove the pork from the bone and cut the loin into thin slices. Serve with the onions braised in cider and Chunky Applesauce.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan large enough to accommodate the apples. Add the apples and saute over medium-low heat until the apples start to soften. Add the reserved cider, apple cider, and cinnamon and cook over medium-low heat until most of the cider has evaporated and the apples are cooked and very soft.
- Add the heavy cream and walnuts and cook until the cream has reduced by half. The end result should be a very chunky, sweet/savory applesauce.

If you order the pork from a butcher, have the rib rack reserved; use it as a roasting rack for more tender and juicy meat.

Steps:
- Rinse pork and pat dry. Rub mustard over it and season with the salt and pepper and place in a large nonreactive pan. Pour cider and vinegar over and refrigerate, turning often, for at least 3 hours or up to overnight.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Let pork come to room temperature. Drain off marinade and reserve in a small saucepan.
- If using, place rib rack in roasting pan; rest the pork in the curve of the bones. Otherwise, place pork directly in roasting pan.
- Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees and place pork in oven. Roast, basting with pan juices, until a meat thermometer inserted into the center of the pork reads 155 degrees to 160 degrees, about 1 hour and 40 to 50 minutes with the rack and 1 hour and 15 minutes without the rack. Test after 1 hour of cooking to make sure it does not overcook.
- Meanwhile, place saucepan of marinade over medium-low heat; simmer until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 1 hour; it will reduce to about 1/3 cup. Brush over pork during last 30 minutes of cooking.
- Remove roast from oven and let rest for about 30 minutes.
- Slice roast and layer with Green Tomato Chutney on Anadama Bread for sandwiches.

ROAST PORK LOIN WITH CIDER GLAZE
A lovely pork recipe from the Pup's Cider website (ingredients as listed there). The Marquis de Saint-Loup Pommeau is listed behind the Pup's Harvest Hard Cider because it isn't recognized at this point- please take note that it is another ingredient needed until I can add it properly. ;) Also, please note that the recipe calls for Pup's brand boiled cider - it isn't actually asking you to "boil" cider. **I haven't made this recipe yet, but it looked delicious and i hope to try it as soon as I locate the ingredients**

Steps:
- Place pork in a roasting pan.
- In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients, except for the Pup's Monadnock Harvest Hard Cider.
- Rub the mixture over the pork, cover, and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Pour off and reserve the marinade.
- Add the Pup's Monadnock Harvest Hard Cider to the pan, place in a preheated 475°F oven, and roast for 20 minutes.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F and roast an additional 30 minutes or so, basting occasionally with the marinade mixture, until a meat thermometer registers 150°F.
- Remove from the oven and let rest 10 minutes.
- Deglaze the pan over medium heat with 1/4 cup water combined with 1/4 cup Marquis de Saint-Loup Pommeau, scraping up any bits, and stirring until it is slightly reduced.
- Slice pork, drizzle with the reduction, and serve.
Tips:
- To ensure the pork loin is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should read 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 150°F (66°C) for medium, or 155°F (68°C) for well-done.
- To make a flavorful glaze, use a combination of apple cider, maple syrup, brown sugar, and spices. You can also add a bit of Dijon mustard for a tangy flavor.
- For a crispy crust, sear the pork loin in a hot skillet before roasting it in the oven. This will help render the fat and create a golden brown exterior.
- Let the pork loin rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
Conclusion:
Cider-glazed roast pork loin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its tender meat, flavorful glaze, and crispy crust, it is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you are looking for a special meal to prepare, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
