Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
To freeze pork loin, start by letting it cool to room temperature. Then, transfer the tenderloin into a freezer bag or an airtight container, ensuring minimal air is trapped inside. Seal tightly and label with the date for easy reference. When you're ready to use it, allow the tenderloin to thaw in the refrigerator for safe and even defrosting.
