Time 3h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup fresh rosemary leaf, plus
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
10 cloves garlic
16 fresh sage leaves
2 teaspoons salt
3 1/2 lbs boneless pork loin (preferably with the tail intact)
1 bay leaf
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Put 1/2 cup rosemary leaves, 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, 5 garlic cloves, 8 sage leaves and 1 teaspoon of salt into a food processor bowl.
  • Process until you have a fairly smooth paste.
  • Lay out the pork loin fat side down.
  • Cut along the top side of the"tail" and into the eye of the roast.
  • Continue cutting in a sawing motion, unrolling the loin into a rectangle of more or less even thickness.
  • Spread the entire top surface of the pork evenly with the herb paste.
  • Starting with the side opposite the tail, roll the roast into a compact roll with a spiral of herb filling running through it.
  • Tie the roast at 1-inch intervals with kitchen twine.
  • Season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Set the meat into a round 5-quart casserole dish.
  • Add the remaining rosemary sprigs, sage leaves, garlic and bay leaf.
  • Pour in just enough water to cover the meat.
  • Season the water lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower the heat to a simmer and cook, turning the meat occasionally, until almost all of the water has evaporated and the meat begins to stick to the casserole, about 2 hours.
  • Skim any foam off of the surface as needed.
  • Pour off the fat remaining in the braising pan and pour in the remaining 3 tablespoons of olive oil.
  • Adjust the heat to very low.
  • Cook, turning often, until the pork has a caramelized golden brown crust, 15 to 30 minutes.
  • Let the meat rest for 20 minutes and then slice into 1/4" thick slices.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: Pork loin is a lean and flavorful cut of meat that is perfect for roasting. It is important to choose a pork loin that is at least 2 inches thick so that it cooks evenly.
  • Prepare the pork loin: Before roasting, the pork loin should be trimmed of excess fat and patted dry with paper towels. This will help the pork loin brown evenly and prevent it from becoming greasy.
  • Season the pork loin: The pork loin should be seasoned generously with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs. This will help to enhance the flavor of the meat.
  • Sear the pork loin: Before roasting, the pork loin should be seared in a hot skillet. This will help to create a flavorful crust and lock in the juices.
  • Roast the pork loin: The pork loin should be roasted in a preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. It is important to use a meat thermometer to ensure that the pork loin is cooked to the proper temperature.
  • Let the pork loin rest: After roasting, the pork loin should be allowed to rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices to redistribute and make the meat more tender.

Pork loin is a delicious and versatile cut of meat that can be prepared in a variety of ways. When roasted properly, pork loin is tender, juicy, and flavorful. By following the tips in this article, you can create a delicious and memorable pork loin roast that your family and friends will love.
