Separate and remove the garlic cloves
Place the garlic bulb inside the resealable plastic bag with the pointy stalk end pointing towards the counter. Press the palm of your hand on the root end of the bulb of garlic and push down firmly. The bulb should break apart and the cloves will separate. Pull out the individual cloves of garlic from the bag, leaving the outer skin from the garlic behind.

Season the pork
Place the pork on a June Roasting Rack set in the June Pan. Rub the oil over the entire surface of the pork loin, then sprinkle all over with the salt and pepper. Rub the salt and pepper into the pork so the seasoning adheres to the meat.

Roast the pork
Place the pork on the bottom shelf of the June Oven and plug the June Food Thermometer into the jack. Roast until the pork is cooked to your desired doneness, about 60 minutes. June will notify you when the pork is ready.
Make the salsa verde
While the pork cooks, make the salsa verde. Squeeze the paste from 4 of the roasted garlic cloves and add to the bowl of the food processor. Reserve the remaining garlic for another use. Add the oil, cilantro, parsley, mint, lime juice, honey, salt and red pepper flakes to the food processor. Process until the herbs are finely chopped, about 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cover until ready to use.

Rest and serve
Remove the pork from the June Oven and transfer the roast to a chopping board. Allow to rest at least 10 minutes before cutting crosswise into ½”-thick slices. Transfer the sliced pork to serving plates or a platter. Spoon some of the salsa over the pork and serve more at the table.
