Description
Enhance your pork dishes with homemade porketta seasoning, a savory blend of herbs and spices for irresistible flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons dried thyme
- 2 teaspoons dried parsley
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- 1 ½ teaspoons dried rosemary
- 2 teaspoons fennel seed
- 1/2 teaspoon red chili flakes, optional
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine all the dried herbs and spices. Mix well to ensure they are evenly distributed. If desired, you can lightly toast the fennel seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes. This step enhances their flavor but is optional.
- Transfer it to an airtight container or jar for storage.
- Use the porketta seasoning to season your pork roasts, chops, tenderloins, or any other pork dishes. Rub it onto the meat, ensuring it is evenly coated for maximum flavor. If you have time, let the seasoned pork sit in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat. Cook your pork as desired, whether by roasting, grilling, or pan-frying. The porketta seasoning will enhance the flavor and add a delicious herbal and savory taste to your dish.
Notes
- For a 4-5 pound roast weighing 4-5 pounds, use 3 tablespoons of Porketta seasoning to ensure a flavorful result. However, if you prefer a milder seasoning or are unsure about the taste of fennel seed, start with half the amount and adjust to your preference.
- If you're not a fan of the texture of whole fennel seeds, you can easily grind them using a spice grinder before incorporating them into the Porketta seasoning. This will help make a smoother and more consistent texture in the seasoning blend.
