Ingredients

• ¼ cup Diamond Crystal® Kosher Salt
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
• 1 clove garlic, chopped
• 1 (3 pound) boneless pork loin roast, butterflied
• ¼ cup chopped roasted pistachios
• ¼ cup sweetened dried cranberries
• ¼ cup golden raisins
• 2 cloves garlic, chopped
• 1 tablespoon olive oil, or more as needed
• Ground black pepper to taste

Cooking Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Place Diamond Crystal® Kosher Salt, parsley, thyme, rosemary and garlic in a food processor. Pulse several times until well blended.
3. Mix pistachios, dried cranberries, raisins, garlic, and 1 teaspoon of the herb salt mixture together in a bowl.
4. Unroll the pork roast onto a roasting pan or baking dish. Spread the dried fruit mixture evenly over the roast, leaving a 1-inch margin around the edges. Roll up the roast and tie with kitchen twine at two-inch intervals to hold stuffing in place.
5. Drizzle roast with olive oil; and sprinkle with herb salt and pepper to taste. Save any remaining herb salt for another use.*
6. Roast for 1 hour. Increase the oven temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C), and roast until golden brown, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
7. Allow roast to sit for 10 minutes prior to serving.
