I don't know about you, but i like to brine pork loin before i stuff and roast them. I like a moist porkloin hence the brining.

Brining Ingredients:
Kosher Salt
Water

***** I went easy on the rosemary since i bought prosciutto cotto with rosemary.


1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
2. Mix ingredients except porkloin in a bowl w/ capers and 1/3 C olive oil.
3. Butterfly the porkloin: slice the length of the loin, so that it unrolls with an even 1/2-1/4” thickness.
4. Spread stuffings evenly over the meat.
5. Roll up pork and tie with butchers' twine at 2-inch intervals.
6. Rub pork with olive oil and season pork all over with salt and black pepper and transfer to prepared pan.
