Instructions
-
For the Pork Loin
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Allow the pork to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Place the pork, fat side up, in a roasting pan just large enough to hold it comfortably.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, 2 teaspoons of each mustard, the fennel seed, kosher salt, and fresh ground black pepper.
- Rub the mixture on top of the pork and roast for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F.
- Remove from the oven, transfer to a cutting board, and cover tightly with aluminum foil for 20 minutes.
-
For the Sauce
- Remove all but 1/4 cup of fat from the roasting pan. If there isn't 1/4 cup, add enough butter to the pan to make 1/4 cup total.
- Over medium heat, whisk the flour into the fat in the pan and cook for 1 minute.
- Add the wine and scrape up all the brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Add the chicken stock, the remaining 2 teaspoons of each mustard, the green peppercorns, kosher salt, and fresh ground black pepper.
- Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, until the sauce is reduced and slightly thickened.
-
- Remove the strings from the roast pork, slice between the bones, and serve warm with the hot sauce.
