Description
Fennel, caraway, dill and anise seeds coat this pork roast for a juicy, aromatic and flavor-packed dish.
Directions
- Rub soy sauce over the roast until it’s coated all over.
- In a 13" x 10" x 1" baking pan, stir together the anise seed, fennel, caraway and dill seed. Roll pork roast in seeds to coat evenly. Wrap meat in foil; refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
