Shrimp, Corn and Chile Soup
Milk-Braised Pork
Tender and succulent, pork roast braised in thick, creamy milk, delicate thyme and woodsy sage is a revelation.
8 servings
Strain and use the leftover braising liquid as a sauce for the pork and vegetables or as a base for chowder.
Ingredients
-
2 pounds pork shoulder or pork loin
-
Vegetable oil, for browning
-
1 quart whole milk
-
1 onion, quartered
-
6 to 8 fresh sage leaves
-
1 bunch fresh thyme sprigs
-
Freshly ground black pepper
-
2 teaspoons teaspoons salt
Instructions
- Heat a large, deep cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add a little oil. When hot, add pork and cook about 5 minutes, turning to brown on all sides. Drain excess oil.
- Add remaining ingredients and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook, uncovered, 2 hours. Turn meat over halfway through cooking. The meat is cooked when tender, but not falling apart. Serve with Fava Been Purée, Caramelized Cipollini and Vegetable Ragout.
