Asian-Style Pork Roast

• 2 -3 lbs boneless pork loin roast
• kosher salt
• Chinese five spice powder
• Marinade
• 2 tablespoons ginger, minced
• 2 tablespoons garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup rice vinegar
• 1/2 cup sake
• 1/2 cup hot water or 1/2 cup hot stock
• 2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses
• 2 tablespoons dark soy sauce

1. Preheat oven to 450u0b0F Rub pork roast liberally with salt and five-spice powder. Place in roasting pan, place pan in oven, and roast undisturbed 15 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, stir together marinade ingredients until well combined.
3. Pour 1/2 c of marinade over the roast. Lower heat to 325u0b0F Baste meat with 1/4 c of marinade every 15 minutes; if there is enough liquid in the bottom of the pan use that instead.
4. Roast 75-105 minutes, until the internal temperature is 145-150u0b0F Remove from oven, tent with foil and let rest 10-15 minutes before carving. If there is any marinade left over, it can be drizzled over the meat as is, or reduced in a small saucepan to make a glaze, then drizzled over the meat.
