| COOKING BASICS:
|
| 1) |
Preheat oven to 325 to 350 degrees F. (for pork tenderloin, roast at 450 degrees F.).
|
| 2) |
Trim much of the exterior fat from the roast; if roast has no fat cover, rub the surface with 1 to 2 teaspoons of oil. Season roast with herbs and other seasonings, if desired.
|
| 3) |
Place roast on rack in shallow roasting pan.
|
| 4) |
Do not cover; place in oven and roast to an internal temperature of 150 to 155 degrees F. for medium doneness.
|
| 5) |
Remove roast from oven. Allow it to "rest" for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing. This resting period allows juices to redistribute. Internal temperature will rise approximately another 5 degrees F.
