Tips
- To ensure the pork loin cooks evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The USDA recommends cooking pork to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can also check the doneness of the pork by making a small incision in the center of the roast. The juices should run clear, not pink.
- To create a flavorful crust on the pork, rub it with a mixture of Dijon mustard, herbs, and bread crumbs before roasting.
- To prevent the pork from drying out, baste it with the pan juices every 15-20 minutes while roasting.
- Let the pork rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.
Conclusion
Roast pork loin with Dijon herb crust is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. By following these tips, you can ensure that your pork loin turns out perfectly cooked and flavorful every time.
