Cooking is much more than the simple act of preparing food for delicious dishes. It is often synonymous with traveling. Travel to another location. Travel to another time that has passed. Especially for the more nostalgic, who love to visit the past and stay there for long moments … and meals.
This pork loin is a great – and delicious – example of these dishes that are an authentic time machine. It reminds us so much of our mothers’ lunches, right? And it’s not just any pork loin: besides having plums and being accompanied by some delicious potatoes, this loin still has a few slices of bacon on top. Who said that what is great also cannot improve?
