The pork loin was browned in the instant pot then cooked for 20 mins.

The oven was preheated to 425.

After cutting up the vegetables they were tossed with the prosciutto, a little bit of melted bacon butter and the spices. What's the spread on a baking sheet lined with tin foil and placed in the oven for 25 mins.

The sauce was prepared by using the remaining bacon butter scallion whites and shallots until they were going clear. Next into the pan the Fig Jam was added and cooked until it was melted down, next in was the mushroom stock. Last ingredients for the sauce were the vinegar and water. The sauce was allowed to cook down until the liquids reached a syrup consistency.

The figs were cut into halves for plating. The pork was cut into sections and scallion greens were added after the sauce.

Cheese tortilla party

Making: Cheese tortilla! 6 servings prepared. Here's what I have: 284 Grams of king Arthur masa harina 60 Grams cheese powder 30 Grams butter powder 419 grams hot water Preparation: The dry ingredients were combined in the mixing bowl. With the stand mixer set to stir I slowly added the hot water until the dough ball formed. Once everything was well Incorporated the adult wall was divided into six portions. A damp paper towel was placed over the dough so it didn't try out as the tortillas were cooked. Using a parchment lined tortilla press each dough ball was pressed just before cooking on the Comal. Each side was allowed to cook for 30-45 seconds before flipping. This allowed each side to dry out just enough. The second cook was done until the tortilla puffed up and Browning was beginning to form. The plate! - Kris
