About ""RACK-OF-PK,ET12,UNSEAS,2-1PC,Z""
Farmland Rack of Pork is a food-service pork product representing one of the less common cuts in mainstream American pork retail but increasingly popular in restaurant applications. The product code indicates an enhanced rack of pork treated with up to 12 percent deep basted solution, packaged as two single-bone pieces. Enhancement with solution is done to improve tenderness and juiciness during cooking.
A rack of pork is the pork equivalent of a beef rack of ribs or a lamb rack, consisting of the rib bones with the loin muscle attached. The pork loin rack is valued in restaurant settings for its visual presentation, particularly as individual bone-in chops, and for the tender, mild flavor of the loin muscle compared to rib or shoulder cuts. The French trim preparation, which involves scraping the rib bones clean of meat and fat for a cleaner appearance, is often applied to this cut before plating.
The enhancement solution contains water, potassium lactate, dextrose, sodium phosphates, and salt. Potassium lactate acts as a natural antimicrobial agent that extends refrigerated shelf life while also contributing a mild flavoring effect. Dextrose aids in browning during high-heat cooking via the Maillard reaction. Sodium phosphates retain moisture. The combination allows the loin to remain juicy even when cooked to well-done temperatures.
At 179 calories per 112-gram serving with 11.6 grams of fat and 17.9 grams of protein, the rack of pork is a moderately fatty cut that benefits from resting after cooking to redistribute internal juices. Food-service applications include plated entrees in casual dining and upscale casual restaurants, holiday menus, and buffet carving stations.
