Flour or a flour substitute is a key component for cooking pork chops or loin in a bag. The flour blends with the fat and juices in the oven bag to prevent the bag from bursting. Always pour about a tablespoon of flour or flour substitute into the bag prior to cooking, and then shake the bag to spread the flour around. If your recipe calls for a thickened sauce or gravy, you can add more flour as indicated.
When you set the roast in the bag, the fit should be roomy. The bags will expand while the pork cooks and moisture forms and the bag can’t spread out if it is too small.
