  • Place the rack of pork into a pan, skin side down and add in hot water. Ensure that whole skin is touching the water. Allow the pork to remain in the water for 3 minutes. Repeat this process 3 times until the skin is softened.
  • Once the meat is done soaking, remove from the pan and tap the skin dry with a paper towel.
  • Cover the skin with salt and place onto an oiled pan with low heat, skin side down. Keep moving the meat around and ensure that only the skin is touching the pan and not the meat.

  • Place the meat skin side up onto the pan over the vegetables, acting as a bed for the rack.
  • Place the rack into the oven at 180 degrees Celsius and cook for 15 minutes. After this drop the temperature to 160 degrees Celsius and cook for a further 30 minutes.
  • Once the pork comes out of the oven, place on a plate to rest. Using the same pan with the vegetables, add in water and bring the vegetable stock to a boil.
