Maiale al Latte

First marinated in wine, pork is stewed slowly in milk and herbs in this recipe. It is a popular cooking method in the whole of the north of Italy; certain cuts of veal are also often cooked in this way. The meat ends up tasting deliciously sweet and is perfectly tender, and the cooked milk gives the sauce a very unusual texture. The milk will have curdled quite dramatically by the time the meat is ready, but rest assured that this is quite normal.
