"I THINK what I enjoy most about Ukrainian cooking is the smells it creates. This pork roast reminds me of my mother's kitchen—it smells wonderful! My mother canned and preserved in the fall and always used applesauce to glaze the meat. That's probably why I associate the sweet aroma of this hearty stick-to-your-ribs meal with cooler weather."

Ingredients

  • 1 boneless rolled pork loin roast (4 to 5 pounds), trimmed
  • 1 garlic clove, cut into lengthwise strips
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon prepared mustard
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 cup applesauce
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vinegar
  • 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

Directions

  1. Cut slits in top of roast; insert garlic strips. Combine the flour, mustard, salt, sugar and pepper; rub over roast. Place fat side up on a rack in a roasting pan.
