CITRUS-BRINED PORK LOIN WITH PEACH MUSTARD

Steps:

• Citrus-Thyme Brine:
• Bring onion, garlic, bay leaf, salt, brown sugar, coriander seeds, fennel seeds, peppercorns, and 2 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring, until salt and sugar are dissolved. Remove from heat and add 2 cups cold water. Transfer brine to a large heatproof bowl or jar. Squeeze orange and lemon juice into brine and add citrus halves and thyme. Chill until cool.
• Place pork in a large resealable plastic bag and add brine. Seal bag, pressing out air, and chill at least 12 hours.
• Do ahead: Brine can be made 2 days ahead; cover and keep chilled. Pork can be brined 24 hours ahead; keep chilled.
• Dry Rub and Assembly:
• Remove pork from brine, brushing off any spices. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour before grilling.
• Toast coriander and fennel seeds in a small skillet over medium heat, tossing occasionally, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Let cool, then finely grind in mortar and pestle or spice mill; combine in a small bowl with brown sugar, salt, pepper, and paprika.
• Prepare grill for 2-zone heat (for a charcoal grill, bank coals on 1 side of grill; for a gas grill, leave 1 or 2 burners off) and oil grate. Pat pork dry and rub all over with dry rub. Grill over direct heat, bone side up, until lightly charred, about 5 minutes. Turn pork and grill, bone side down, until lightly charred, about 5 minutes more.
• Transfer pork to cooler side of grill, bone side up; cover grill. Grill pork, turning occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of loin registers 145°, 45-60 minutes. (The internal temperature of grill should be 400°; add more charcoal or adjust heat as needed.)
• Transfer pork to a cutting board, tent loosely with foil, and let rest 20 minutes. Cut loin from ribs, and slice loin; cut between ribs. Serve with Peach Mustard.
• Do ahead: Dry rub can be made 1 day ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.

PEACH-MUSTARD COMPOTE

Steps:

• Start with our step-by-step canning how-to.
• Sterilize four 8-ounce canning jars and lids.
• Using a vegetable peeler, remove the zest from the lemons in wide strips, leaving the bitter white pith behind. Squeeze the lemon juice through a strainer into a large, wide saucepan. Add the zest, wine, sugar, honey, mustard seeds, peppercorns and red pepper flakes. Tie the rosemary and bay leaves together with twine and add to the pan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the liquid thickens and a candy or deep-fry thermometer registers 220 degrees F, about 10 minutes.
• Add the peaches and dried fruit to the pan. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook until the peaches are just tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat; discard the herbs.
• Fill the jars with the peach mixture, leaving 3/4 inch headspace, then seal and process.

Cool and serve at room temperature with chicken or pork.
