Pork baked in the oven

Oven-baked pork is the perfect hot dish for a festive table. It does not require special attention (it spends more than 4.5 hours in splendid isolation!), but it almost always turns out great. The quality of the raw materials in this case is of decisive importance: buy chilled meat, no frozen! Spices and spices for pickling can be varied depending on your taste preferences, but we do not recommend giving up juniper and coriander, as they give the dish a very interesting “sound”. By the way, while the pork is being baked in the oven, your loved ones and guests at home will be fascinated by the magical aromas coming from the kitchen, and by the time they are served, their appetite will be at its peak!
