Prepare the Juniper and Bacon Sauce
While the pork is roasting, cook the smoked bacon in a pan over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon and chop it into small pieces. In the same pan, add the juniper berries and a splash of water, cooking until the water evaporates. Stir in the chopped bacon and set aside.

Macarate the Fruits

Plating
Once the pork jowl is done, slice it thinly and arrange it on a plate. Add a dollop of crème fraîche on top, sprinkle with the juniper and bacon mixture, and garnish with the macerated fruits and endive leaves.
