Porchetta Roasted Cured Pork Alma

Porchetta Roasted Cured Pork is a savory, fatty, and moist boneless pork roast of Italian culinary tradition. The carcass is deboned, arranged carefully stuffed with liver, wild fennel, all fat, and skin still on a spit, and/or roasted, traditionally over wood for at least 8 hours. 

Customarily, Porchetta is heavily salted in addition to being filled with garlic, rosemary, fennel, or other herbs, often wild. 

Nowadays, Porchetta has been selected by the Italian Ministry of Agricultural, Food and Forestry Policy as a "Prodotto Agroalimentare Tradizionale," (literally “traditional agricultural-food product”,) one of the selected few placed in a list of traditional Italian foods held to have cultural relevance.

Italian Origins

Although popular in the whole country, porchetta originated in central Italy, with Ariccia, in the Province of Rome, being the town most closely associated with it. Elsewhere, it is considered a celebratory dish. Across Italy, porchetta is usually sold by pitchmen with their typically white-painted vans, especially during public displays or holidays, and it can be served in a Panino. It's a common street food in Rome and Lazio served as a filling for Pizza Bianca. It is also eaten as a meat dish in many households or as part of a picnic.

Popularity

Porchetta is one of the two iconic culinary products of the Lazio region, the other being the sheep cheese pecorino romano. Porchetta Roasted Cured Pork is also common in Abruzzo. Porchetta Abruzzese is generally slow roasted with rosemary, garlic, and pepper. Porchetta from Umbria is stuffed with the pig's chopped entrails mixed with lard, garlic, salt and plenty of pepper and wild fennel.

Porchetta trevigiana (from Treviso) was developed in 1919. In it, a pig is slaughtered when one year old, and then its meat is stuffed with salt, pepper, wild fennel, garlic, and white wine. It is then roasted inside an oven for seven hours at 90 °C (194 °F). The porchetta is today a popular dish in Venetian cuisine.

The dish is also a staple of Sardinian cuisine. There it is known as "porceddu" and is roasted over juniper and myrtle wood fires.

Sample Recipe: Homemade Italian Porchetta Roasted Cured Pork

YIELD: Makes 12-15 servings

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 5-6-pound piece fresh pork belly, skin on

  • 1 (trimmed) 2-3-pound boneless, center-cut pork loin

  • 3 tablespoons fennel seeds

  • 2 tablespoons crushed red pepper flakes

  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh sage

  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

  • Kosher salt (to taste)

  • 1/2 orange, seeded, thinly sliced

PREPARATION

  • Put belly skin side down; arrange loin in the center. Carefully roll belly around the loin so that the short ends of the belly meet. If any of the belly or loin overhangs, scrape the excess meat. Unroll; then, set loin aside.

  • Toast fennel seeds and red pepper flakes in a small skillet over medium heat. Do it for about 1 minute, or until fragrant. Remove skillet from heat. Place spices into a bowl and let cool. Finely grind spices in a spice. Once done, transfer to a small bowl, along with the sage, rosemary, and garlic. Set the fennel mixture aside.

  • Assemble porchetta according to steps 1-5.

       To assemble:

  1. Set belly skin side down. Using a knife, score the belly flesh in a checkerboard pattern 1/3" deep so roast will cook evenly.
  2. Flip belly skin side up. Using a paring knife, poke dozens of ⅛ inch-deep holes through the skin all over the belly. Don't be gentle! Keep poking. 

  3. Using the jagged edge of a meat mallet, pound skin all over for 3 minutes to tenderize, which will help make skin crispy when roasted.

  4. Turn belly and generously salt both it and loin; rub both with fennel mixture. Arrange loin down the middle of the belly. Top with orange slices.

  5. Roll belly around loin; tie crosswise with kitchen twine at 1/2" intervals. Trim twine. Transfer roast to a wire rack set in a rimmed baking sheet.

  • Refrigerate roast, uncovered, for 1-2 days to allow skin to air-dry; pat occasionally with paper towels.

  • Let the Porchetta sit at room temperature for 2 hours. Preheat oven to 500°F. Season porchetta with salt. Roast on rack in baking sheet, turning once, for 40 minutes. Reduce heat to 300°F and continue roasting, rotating the pan and turning porchetta occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of meat registers 145°F, 1 1/2-2 hours more. If the skin is not yet deep brown and crisp, increase heat to 500°F and roast for 10 minutes more. Let rest for 30 minutes. Using a serrated knife, slice into 1/2" rounds.

Best dog toy!
Color: Multicolor/Alligator & Wild Duck, Size: Medium, Color: Multicolor/Alligator & Wild Duck, Size: Medium
Best dog toy! Most dog toys lady maybe a week or less but this one has been going strong for almost 2 months. Both the squeekers still work on both toys i purchased. My vizsla loves ti squeek and carry it around. We added an empty water bottle in the pocket cavity for some extra fun! Yes, we are still on the same water bottle! Fantastic durability.

Shows wear quickly
Color: Multicolor/Sheep & Cow, Size: Medium
These are cute but not holding up as well as I had hoped. Quality is ok and the Velcro has held up great. The fabric just isn’t as good as it could be. They are much larger than expected.

Super Sturdy with hours of fun.
Color: Wild Duck, Hare, Squirrel & Alligator, Size: Small
I got the small ones that you cannot put a water bottle in. These toys have held up way better than expected. I am dog sitting a very rough with toys dog named Chunk. He tears up ever. Single. Toy my dog (Ted) has. I bought new ones just for chunk. These appealed to me with the no stuffing, They were cheaper, and have a squeaker. Everything chunk needed. They arrived on time and I thought I wasted my money. They were super soft, like too soft. They felt flimsy and weak. Like 5 minutes with chunk and they be dead. 2 hours with my dog and they would have a rip. So far 2 of them (I set two out) have lasted the whole weekend. The bunny looks very rough and disgusting, but no rips, the squeakers still work, and no random fluff everywhere. I am going to wash the bunny once chunk leaves. My very careful doggo Ted loves them too. He throws them up in the air and catches them, plays tug of war with them, and no rips. They are super sturdy. He can’t wait until Chunk leaves (chunk is 2 and Ted is 12-13) so he can play with them.

Loved it
Color: Brown/Wild Duck, Size: Large, Color: Brown/Wild Duck, Size: Large
He loved it so much, he destroyed it so we ordered another. I didn't realize that you can stick an empty water bottle inside. Again, the first one didn't last long, but he enjoyed it

Very fun interactive toy
Color: Brown/Wild Duck, Size: Medium
This toy is very versatile. There's no stuffing yet it's very soft so it can be used as a tug toy. It also makes for a fun fetch toy because it has a cavity to put a water bottle. It gives your dog something that crinkles and can be pierced when bitten and easily replaced with another empty bottle whenever necessary. That is what really makes this toy the standout of all the ones offered by Best Pet imo. I don't expect this to last forever but once my pup gets bigger we'll probably get the large size for her because there's not too many all in one fetch and tug toys at an affordable price.
