How to Make the Juiciest Italian Porchetta at Home

Video Description

This Porchetta recipe is the real deal. Crispy, juicy, and full of flavor, you can make it right in your home oven with no special equipment needed. The result is perfectly balanced between rich, fatty layers and tender meat, rolled into a tight log that cooks evenly and stays moist inside. Each slice is packed with the aroma of whisky, fennel, rosemary, granulated garlic and black pepper, all sealed under a golden, bubbly crust. 💯 Follow this link to read and print the written recipe: https://www.vincenzosplate.com/homemade-porchetta-recipe/ #porchetta #pork #vincenzosplate ========================================== INGREDIENTS: 4kg/ 8.8 pounds / 141oz pork belly (boneless) 1kg / 1.1 pounds/ 35.2oz lean pork fillet Bottle of whisky Fennel leaves 40g/ 1.41oz fine salt 20g /0.70oz mixed dried herbs Granulated garlic, to taste Black pepper A fresh bunch of rosemary 4 bottles of beer 2 glasses of water METHOD: 1) Optional: Put on gloves. Pour a small splash of whisky over the pork belly, just enough to coat it lightly. This gives the meat extra flavor without overpowering it. 2) Sprinkle salt evenly across the pork belly, then place the lean pork fillet in the center. Season the fillet with a little more salt to make sure every layer is perfectly flavored. 3) Next, add granulated garlic over the surface, as much as you like. Sprinkle the dried herbs evenly so they cover the meat from edge to edge. 4) Strip the rosemary leaves from the stems and scatter them generously over the top. Add plenty of fennel leaves too, avoiding the hard stems, until the entire piece is beautifully covered. Finish with freshly ground black pepper to taste. 5) Find the center of the pork belly and carefully slide an aluminum rod through it. Roll the meat around the rod to form a tight cylinder. 6) Use a trussing needle to secure the roll. Start from the middle, threading the butcher’s string through to the other side, and tie it tightly like you would a shoelace. Keep sewing and tying until the porchetta is fully closed around the rod. 7) If threading with a needle is tricky, simply slide pieces of string under the roll, pull them up, and tie them firmly. The goal is to keep the shape tight and secure. Trim off any extra string when you’re done.
