  • All-purpose seasoning blend (e.g., salt, pepper, garlic powder mix)
  • Olive oil
  • Kitchen twine
    Substitui por: fio dental
Recheio
  • Pre-made savory toasted cassava flour (Farofa)

Instructions

1
cortar

Using a sharp knife, carefully butterfly the pork loin open into a flat sheet, making longitudinal internal cuts so the meat unfolds, but avoid cutting all the way to the edges.

5min

Dica: Be very careful in this step not to damage the cut of the meat.

2
pincelar

Brush olive oil on both sides of the opened loin. It is important to leave the fat cap intact to prevent the meat from drying out during cooking.

1min

Dica: The olive oil helps the seasoning adhere and keeps the meat moist.

3
temperar

Season the inside surface of the loin with a light sprinkle of the all-purpose seasoning blend.

30s

Dica: Use very little seasoning inside, as the stuffing mixture is already seasoned.

4
rechear

Spread the savory toasted cassava flour stuffing over the inner surface of the loin, concentrating the filling in the center area to facilitate closing.

2min

Dica: Do not overstuff with the toasted cassava flour mixture to ensure you can close the loin properly.

5
enrolar

Roll up the loin, pressing lightly on the stuffing so it settles and stays inside the meat.

2min

Dica: Try to roll it in a way that keeps the filling centralized, using your hands to gently guide the process.

6
amarrar

Tie the rolled loin tightly with kitchen twine, making sure the ends are secured with a firm knot, but without tearing the meat.

3min

Dica: A firm knot is essential to maintain the structure during cooking.

7
temperar

Season the outside surface of the tied loin with a bit more of the all-purpose seasoning blend.

45s

Dica: It is recommended to season the loin externally only after it's ready or just before roasting, as salting too early can dry out the meat.

8
assar

Roast the loin on the grill or in a conventional oven. If using the oven, place it in a roasting pan covered with aluminum foil for approximately 1 hour to 1 hour and a half.

72min

Dica: After the initial covered time, remove the aluminum foil and let it roast for another 30 minutes to brown the meat.

9
cortar

After cooking, remove the kitchen twine and slice the loin to serve.

1min 30s

Dica: The meat should be extremely tender and falling apart.
