Roman Roast Pork Loin Arista di Maiale
 
The Union Square Cafe Cookbook
by Danny Meyer and Michael Romano, 1994, HarperCollins
“Danny
thought it an endearing gesture when the owner of his favorite
Roman trattoria
called him ‘Maiallino’. Having followed in his father’s
footsteps as a
regular diner at that trattoria, Danny interpreted the nick-
name as meaning ‘little Meyer’. It was only after ordering the restaurant’s spectacular
roast loin of baby
pork for the fifth time in as many visits that
Danny finally
learned what he was really being called: ‘little pig’. Since
American pork
is far leaner than its Italian counterpart, it is essential to
cook this roast
slowly and tightly covered so that it
ends up moist
and fork-tender.”
Serves 4
One
8-rib pork loin roast
(ask your butcher to notch the chine every two bones)
2
teaspoons kosher salt
1/4
teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3
tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh rosemary leaves
2
tablespoons sliced garlic
2
tablespoons olive oil
2
cups sliced onions
1
cup white wine
3
cups veal stock
1.
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
2.
Season the pork loin with half the salt and pepper. In a small
bowl combine 1
tablespoon of the rosemary and a quarter of the
garlic slices. Insert the
mixture into the notches between the bones.
3.
In a Dutch oven or ovenproof skillet, heat the olive oil over
medium-high heat.
Sear the pork loin on all sides until golden
brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer
to a plate.
4. Add the remaining garlic and rosemary to the pan and cook over
a medium flame
until softened but not browned, about 1 minute.
Stir in the onions and cook 3 to
4 minutes. Pour in the white wine
and reduce until syrupy. Add the veal stock
and remaining salt
and pepper and bring to a simmer.
5.
Place the pork loin in the pan with the bones facing up. Cover
tightly and cook
for 1 hour.
6. Remove the cover and turn the roast over. Increase the oven
temperature to 500
degrees and cook an additional 25 to 30
minutes, to brown the pork.
7.
Remove the roast from the pan and set aside, covered, in a
warm spot. Over high
heat, reduce the pan juices by half.
Transfer the roast to a cutting board and,
using the notches
as a guide, carve into 4 double chops. Serve with the sauce.
