In this 2026 YouTube tutorial, Orazio Vagnozzi demonstrates how to prepare a tender, aromatic pork stew (spezzatino di maiale) featuring leeks and saffron. He begins by listing simple seasonal ingredients—pork shoulder (coppa), leeks, saffron threads, white wine, lemon, vegetable broth, oil, salt, and pepper—and explains why each is chosen. He cuts the coppa into 4 cm cubes, emphasizes the importance of a sharp knife, and sears the meat at >140 °C to achieve a Maillard crust, monitoring temperature with a probe. Leeks are sliced into half‑moon shapes, lightly stewed in butter without browning, then combined with the seared pork. After deglazing with white wine and allowing the alcohol to evaporate, he adds broth infused with saffron, covering the meat and cooking for about 90 minutes at a controlled low temperature (82–88 °C) using an induction hob set between levels 1‑3 and a thermometer to avoid boiling. Periodic checks every 15‑30 minutes ensure the connective tissue gelatinizes without drying the meat. Near the end, a portion of the leeks and broth is pureed to thicken the sauce, with optional potato starch alternative noted. The stew is finished with lemon zest, pepper, and a taste check, then plated. Orazio suggests serving with toasted bread, pilaf rice, or purée, and recommends several wine pairings—aromatic whites (Gewürztraminer, Riesling, Garganega, Vermentino), light‑tannin reds (Pinot Nero, Barbera, Schiava), and full‑bodied rosés (Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo, Calabrian rosé). The video closes with calls to like, subscribe, and join his Sunday newsletter about food, restaurants, and wine.
