PORTUGUESE PORK CHOPS

Porco de Vinha de Alhos - Portuguese Pork Chops

Rub pork chops well with ground cumin (crush seeds in a mortar and pestle for best flavor).

Place pork chops into a glass, ceramic or stainless steel ovenproof container. Combine:

1/4 cup white sugar
1 pint cider vinegar
two tablespoons salt.

To this mixture, add:

1/2 cup (4 ounces) whole mixed pickling spices
one quart wine vinegar

Peel, smash and mince:

4 cloves garlic

Add to marinade. Cover tightly and place in refrigerator to marinate for 2 days. Turn pork chops to coat evenly each day.

Bake in a preheated 350°F oven for 40-45 minutes or until done.

Note: If you won't be cooking these in the oven (for example, you might want to grill them outside instead) save the dish and use a Ziploc bag to marinate the chops.

Jill (District of Columbia) says:

This is a favorite childhood memory for me. We dice up the pork into bite size pieces before we marinade, and its cooked on the stove top for breakfast on Christmas and New Years Morning. Definitely is an acquired taste, and a unique aroma. But, when you're Portuguese - It's Christmas!
