HOW TO MAKE HOMEMADE ROASTED PORK LOIN

Step 1: In a bowl, combine the olive oil, mustard, grated garlic, salt, pepper, nutmeg, paprika and Worcestershire sauce.

TIPS FOR HOMEMADE ROASTED PORK LOIN

1. If the loin starts to golden brown too much, reduce the oven temperature or cover with aluminum foil.

2. We usually roast the loin at 180ºC (350ºF) but, if you lower the temperature to 150ºC (300ºF), despite taking longer to roast, it has the advantage of enhancing much more the flavors and the meat gets more tender.

3. If you have leftovers or want to save the loin for another occasion, let it cool completely and store it in the refrigerator in an airtight container (to prevent the growth of microorganisms). To avoid drying out the meat, do not reheat the food in the oven, reheat it in the microwave.
