Getting the best out of your Pork
For juicy, flavourful pork, always start by bringing it to room temperature before cooking — it ensures even results across the cut. Season boldly with salt, pepper, and aromatics like sage, fennel, or garlic to complement its natural sweetness. Lean cuts like loin or fillet benefit from quick searing and careful doneness to avoid drying out, while fattier or tougher cuts like shoulder or belly shine with slow roasting or braising. Resting is just as vital for pork as it is for beef — it locks in moisture and flavour. Want a richer finish? Deglaze your pan with cider, apple juice, or a splash of vinegar to build a tangy, caramelised sauce that pairs beautifully.
