Herb Roasted Pork Loin Roast

Served over rice, this roast is a real treat.  Adapted from a recipe on Allrecipes.com.

1 teaspoon rubbed sage
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 clove of garlic, crushed
One 3 pound Morning Star Family Farm Organic-Fed Pork Loin Roast
1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 cup vinegar
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons soy sauce

Preheat oven to 325.  

In a bowl, combine sage, salt, pepper, and garlic.  Rub over thawed pork roast.  Place in roasting pan and bake until internal temperature is 145 degrees, about 3 hours.  

Meanwhile, combine honey, cornstarch, vinegar, water, and soy sauce in a small saucepan.  Heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture begins to bubble and thicken slightly.  Brush roast with glaze 3 or 4 times during the last 30 minutes of baking.  Pour remaining sauce over roast and serve.
