Thanks to Mariann Coleman for this delicious recipe. I've never really been a fan of pork roast...not until I had some of this. Delicious!
For vinaigrette
Roast pork:
Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 260°C (500°F). Stir together pimentón, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper. Rub mixture all over pork. (Press lightly so rub adheres; you will have some leftover rub.) Put pork on a metal rack in a roasting pan, rib side down. Roast pork 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 150°C (300°F) and continue to roast until a meat thermometer inserted diagonally into center registers 60°C (140°F), 1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 25 minutes more.
Let pork stand, loosely covered with foil, 20 to 25 minutes before carving. (Temperature of meat will rise to about 65°C (150°F).
Make vinaigrette while pork roasts:
Soak raisins in Sherry in a medium bowl, covered, 30 minutes. Add vinegar, shallot, garlic, salt, and pepper, then add oil in a slow stream, whisking until combined. Whisk in parsley just before serving.
Slice pork and serve with vinaigrette and a sprinkling of kosher salt.
Hint:
• Meat rub keeps in an airtight container 1 week.
• Vinaigrette (without parsley) can be made 3 hours ahead and kept at room temperature, or 1 day ahead, chilled and covered. Bring to room temperature and whisk in parsley just before serving.
Serves 8 to 10.
