📖 History and Fun Facts
Citrus glazing is a traditional technique that originated in European cuisine, especially in France and Spain 🇫🇷🇪🇸, to add shine and flavor to roasted meats. In the 19th century, cooks began experimenting with oranges, discovering that their acidity perfectly balanced the natural fat of the pork.
Today, pork loin glazed with orange sauce is one of the most popular dishes served at celebrations and family dinners, thanks to its aroma, texture, and sophisticated presentation. 🌟
