Serves/Makes: 8
Ready in: 2-5 hrs

  • 1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms
  • 1 1/2 cup hot water
  • 1/4 pound bacon, cut into 1-inch dice
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 pounds boneless pork loin, cut into 2-inch dice
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup reserved mushroom liquid
  • 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 cup half-and-half

In a medium bowl, cover the mushrooms with the hot water and set aside to soak for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat a stock pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and fry until crisp. Transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels and set aside.

Remove all but 1 tablespoon of drippings from the pot. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil to the bacon drippings, increase the heat to high, add the pork and cook until browned on all sides. Transfer the pork and any juices to a dish. Set aside.

Place a coffee filter or a piece of cheesecloth in a strainer. Drain the mushrooms, reserving the liquid. Gently squeeze the mushrooms to remove any remaining moisture, blot with paper towels and coarsely chop. Set aside.

Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil along with the onion and garlic to the pot, reduce the heat to medium-low and saute for 5 minutes. Be careful not to brown the garlic.

Add the thyme, salt and pepper and saute for 1 minute. Add the stock or broth, 1/2 cup of the reserved strained mushroom-soaking liquid and the vinegar.

Add the reserved pork (with accumulated juices), bacon and mushrooms, increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a simmer.

Reduce the heat to low, cover and gently simmer for 1 hour and 45 minutes, until the meat is very tender.

In a small bowl, gradually add 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid to the half-and-half. Transfer the mixture to the pot and cook just until heated through, about 5 minutes.
