Herb-Seasoned Roasted Pork
Ingredients
  • 1 teaspoon rubbed sage
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1 (5 pound) boneless pork loin
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup vinegar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit, which is equivalent to 165 degrees Celsius.
2
In a small bowl, mix together sage, salt, pepper, and garlic until well combined.
3
Rub the spice mixture all over the pork loin to ensure even coverage.
4
Place the pork loin in an uncovered roasting pan, allowing it to brown and crisp up during cooking.
5
Cook the pork loin in the preheated oven on the center rack until it reaches an internal temperature of at least 145 degrees Fahrenheit, or 63 degrees Celsius, depending on your desired level of doneness. This should take approximately 3 hours.
6
Simultaneously, combine sugar, cornstarch, vinegar, water, and soy sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat.
7
Allow the mixture to cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to bubble and thicken slightly.
8
Remove the saucepan from heat and cover it to keep the glaze warm.
9
During the last 30 minutes of cooking, brush the pork loin with the glaze 3 or 4 times to add flavor and moisture.

Once the pork loin is cooked, pour any remaining glaze over it to serve.
