Pork and Sauces

Pork takes well to a number of sauces. BBQ sauce is a natural, as are the sweet Chinese sauces like hoisin sauce. Something that’s used a lot in casseroles is Cream of Mushroom Soup. The simplest version is simply a can of soup, possibly diluted with a bit of milk or cream, poured over the chops (browned if you have time, not browned if you don’t) and baked. Serve it with broccoli or other vegetables and use the soup as a gravy. Of course, it’s better if you use homemade Cream of Whatever Soup instead of the canned stuff. Curry sauces are good with pork, as are some salsas. Pan gravy is great with it. Sauces with peanuts and peanut butter are good, too.
