-Spoonful Dunno how you feel about NutriSweet and such ilk, but I'm posting a bunch of stuff from NutriSweets cookbook. Some of it looks right good. Tart cherries in a red wine sauce are the perfect complement to roast pork, while they give a dinnertime favorite new taste appeal. Lightly sprinkle the roast with salt and pepper; place on rack in roasting pan. Insert meat thermometer so tip is in center of meat. Roast at 325F until thermometer registers 170F, about 2 hours. Heat the wine, orange juice, shallots, garlic, ginger root, allspice and 1/8 teaspoon pepper to boiling in medium saucepan; reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes. Heat to boiling once more. Mix cornstarch and cold water; stir into boiling mixture. Boil, stirring constantly, until thickened. Stir in cherries; cook over low heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat; cool for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in NutraSweet Spoonful. Slice pork and arrange on platter; serve with Cherry Sauce. NOTE: Tart Cherry Sauce is also excellent served with venison or other game. Makes 12 servings.
