Not only do roasted grapes have a concentrated sweetness that we find irresistible (particularly with seared pork), but research has shown that grapes are a natural source of beneficial components called polyphenols, which protect the health and functioning of our cells. High in protein, pork loin is also low in saturated fat and chock-full of B vitamins, essential for metabolism and energy, plus zinc and a healthy dose of selenium.
