Receta Orange Glazed Pork Roast
This is a tasty Pork Loin Roast. The glaze and sauce are from "Cajun-Creole Cooking" by Terry Thompson published in 1985. I have added an injection liquid of melted butter and orange juice which keeps the pork very moist while cooking and some additional spices. I cooked the roast to 148^ then rested it for 15 minutes before slicing. The meat is slightly pink in the middle but juices run clear. I served it with brown rice and artichoke hearts/pearl onions in a Dijon Mustard & Horseradish Bechamel sauce. Wine: A fruity Pinot Noir. Fenestra 2007 Livermore Valley Pinot Noir worked for us.
