1 pork shank (about 5 kg)
1 cup of water
7 tablespoons of mustard
5 tablespoons of olive oil
2 1/2 tablespoons of soy sauce
1 tablespoon of cornstarch
1/2 cup of orange gelatin or to taste
Pierce the pork shank with a long fork in several places
Mix the remaining ingredients and brush over the meat in the roasting pan
Cover and let it rest at room temperature for 1 hour
Put it in the moderate oven preheated (180°C) and roast for about 4 or 5 hours, or until cooked through
Add hot water as needed to prevent the glaze from drying out
As the pork roasts, baste with the juices from the pan
When the pork is done, remove it from the pan
Let the glaze rest a bit and remove any excess fat from the surface
Thicken the glaze with the cornstarch dissolved in a little water
Divide the glaze into two portions
To one portion add the orange gelatin
To freeze: let the pork shank cool, then wrap tightly with plastic wrap and aluminum foil
Put it in the freezer
Freeze the two glazes separately
To reheat: remove the pork from the freezer 24 hours before serving, unwrap, place in a roasting pan, and put it back in the moderate oven (180°C) to warm through
Place the pork on a nice platter, slice it, and mound it again
Reheat both glazes as well
Serve with broccoli pudding
Serves 20 portions.
