Pork And Vinegar Recipes

PORK CHOPS WITH VINEGAR

Steps:

• Pound pork chops to 1/4 inch thickness. Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat and brown pork on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Drain fat. Pour water, vinegar, salt, and pepper in pan. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook chops until tender, about 30 minutes. Remove chops from skillet, leaving juices, and place on a platter to keep warm.
• Mash the anchovy fillets together with 2 teaspoons butter, and 1/2 teaspoon flour. Whisk this paste into the simmering liquid to thicken. Cook and stir until the liquid has thickened and the flour is no longer grainy, 3 to 4 minutes. Pour sauce over pork chops to serve.

SALT & VINEGAR ROAST PORK WITH POTATOES

Steps:

• The day before roasting, mix the salt, sugar, vinegar, sage and thyme in a large mixing bowl, then roll the pork in the brine, cover and chill overnight, or for up to 24 hrs.
• Heat oven to 140C/120C fan/gas 1. Tip the potatoes, garlic, onions and thyme into a large roasting tin and toss together with some cracked black pepper, then pack down with your hands and pour over the stock. Remove the pork from the fridge, pat dry with kitchen paper and sit it skin-side up in the middle of the potatoes. Roast for 4 hrs, pushing the potatoes down occasionally so they don't burn.
• If you're happy with the crackling, leave to rest for 15 mins. If not, sit the pork on a shallow roasting tray and turn the oven up to 220C/ 200C fan/gas 7 and roast for 20 mins more or until the skin is crisp, then leave to rest for 10 mins. Check your potatoes - if they are swimming in pork juices, pour some off. Carve the pork and serve with the potatoes, rhubarb compote and stir-fried cumin carrots.

ROAST PORK WITH SAGE LEAVES AND VINEGAR

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Using a heavy dutch oven or enameled casserole just large enough for the pork, brown the meat in the oil on all sides. Remove it from the casserole and season it with salt and pepper.
• Add the vinegar, scraping up the cooking juices, and the sage, reserving a few leaves to go on top of the pork. Return the pork to the casserole and sprinkle the remaining leaves on top of it. Cover and bake, basting from time to time, for about two and a half hours, or until the temperature on a meat thermometer registers 155 degrees, which is high enough to kill any trichinosis bacteria. Do not overcook the pork or it will be dry and tough.
• Let the pork cool in its cooking juices. Put the meat on a platter and pour the juices into a small container and put it in a freezer. When the fat on top has congealed, lift it off. The juices can now be heated up as a gravy or swirled into the plum sauce. To serve the pork, slice it thin and arrange it on a serving platter. Decorate it with sprigs of sage and slices of lemon.
