Pork tenderloin is a lean and tender cut of meat that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. It is also very versatile and can be cooked in a variety of ways. One of our favorite ways to cook pork tenderloin is to coat it in a flavorful mustard peppercorn crust. This crust gives the pork a nice crispy exterior and a juicy, tender interior. The mustard and peppercorns add a bit of spice and tang, making this dish a perfect balance of flavors.

MUSTARD-CRUSTED PORK TENDERLOINS
This is so easy to make and the way many of the higher end restaurants serve pork tenderloins, the mustard crust seals in the juices and tenderizes the meat. The tenderloins can go from moist to dry quickly, so to avoid this use a digital-read thermometer to register the tenderloins at 155 degrees. Your compnay will think they are dining in a fancy restaurant! If you are using a pork loin roast the cooking will need to be adjusted,

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425F.
- Combine mustard, sage, and parsley along with salt and pepper in a small bowl.
- Cut pork tenderloin in half width-wise and rub mustard mixture all over the pork. (Cutting it in half will make it easier to manage while you fry it.)
- Spread breadcrumbs onto a plate and gently press the pork into the breadcrumb mixture so all sides are covered.
- Place a cooling rack on top of a cookie sheet. This is what you will roast the pork on.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add butter and oil. When the butter stops foaming add the pork tenderloin.
- Cook the pork, turning it very gently to brown it on all sides without losing too much of the coating. Transfer to the rack on the cookie sheet and into the oven.
- Bake until the pork is cooked to an internal temperature of at least 155F, this should take about 20 minutes. (The temperature will continue to increase while it rests.)
- Allow to rest for 10 minutes lightly tented with aluminum foil.
- Cut into 1 cm wide slices and serve.

Steps:
- Pat the tenderloins dry with paper towels.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, mustard, sherry, and rosemary.
- Place the tenderloins in a baking dish or bowl. Season all over with 1¼ teaspoons salt and pour about one-third of the marinade over top. Turn the tenderloins a few times to coat evenly with the marinade. Marinate for at least 1 hour or as long as overnight (the longer, the better). Cover the remaining marinade and refrigerate until ready to use (it will form the base of the sauce).
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and set an oven rack in the middle position.
- Heat the oil in a large cast iron or oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat (see note below if you don't have one of these pans). Add both tenderloins and sear on all sides until nicely browned, 6 to 8 minutes (don't move the tenderloins around between turns; they will brown better if left alone). Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until the pork registers about 140°F on an instant-read thermometer, 12 to 15 minutes. (To check for doneness without a thermometer, make a slit in the thickest part of the loin; the meat should be mostly white with a slight hint of pale pink, and the juices should run mostly clear.)
- Remove the skillet from the oven and immediately place an oven mitt or dishtowel over the handle to remind yourself that it is hot (it is easy to forget and burn yourself!). Transfer the tenderloins to a cutting board. Tent with foil and let rest for about 10 minutes, then cut into ¼- to ½-inch slices.
- Meanwhile, pour the remaining marinade into a small skillet and bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat. Remove the pan from the heat and, stirring constantly, incorporate the butter one piece at a time. Add ⅛ teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Arrange the sliced tenderloin on a platter and drizzle with a bit of the sauce; pass the remaining sauce at the table.
- Note: If you don't have an oven-proof skillet, transfer the pork to a foil-lined sheet pan after searing. (The foil is just for easy cleanup.) You may need to add a few minutes to the baking time.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- 2. In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, toast the mustard seeds until fragrant. Using a mortar and pestle lightly crush the mustard seeds. In a small bowl combine the mustard seeds and the panko.
- 3. Using 2 tablespoons of the olive oil rub the pork and season on all sides with gray salt and pepper, to taste, and roll in the panko mustard seed mixture to coat the tenderloins all over.
- 4. In a large saute pan heat the remaining 4 tablespoons olive oil until hot but not smoking, add tenderloins to pan and sear on all sides, about 5 minutes total. Move pan with pork to the oven and cook until a meat thermometer reads 155 degrees F, about 10 to 12 minutes.
- 5. Remove pork from the pan and let rest on a cutting board for about 5 minutes. Slice the tenderloins against the grain on a diagonal bias, fan out on a plate, and serve with the Mostarda di Frutta.
- In a large heavy bottomed pot, over high heat, add the sugar, water and juice of half a lemon and cook until a medium-dark caramel is achieved. Add shallots and the chilies to the caramel. Immediately add all of the fruit, wine, and bay leaf. Cook gently until the fruits are tender and remove from heat. Add the Dijon when the fruits have just been removed from the heat, taste for salt. Let cool to room temperature. Store refrigerated in a covered container or in individual canning jars.
MUSTARD-GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN
This savory-sweet treatment for pork tenderloin was brought to The Times in 1989 by the inimitable Marian Burros. With just five ingredients - pork, brown sugar, whole-grain mustard, rosemary and sherry - you have an extremely simple though supremely satisfying dish. We like ours served with mashed sweet potatoes and a pile of sautéed greens, and the leftovers make great sandwiches.

Tips:
- Choose a tenderloin that is about 1 pound in weight and 1 inch thick.
- To make sure the tenderloin cooks evenly, pound it to an even thickness of 3/4 inch.
- Use a sharp knife to score the fat cap of the tenderloin, which will help prevent it from curling during cooking.
- Season the tenderloin generously with salt and pepper before searing.
- Sear the tenderloin in a hot skillet until it is browned on all sides, which will help to lock in the juices.
- Transfer the tenderloin to a baking dish and roast it in a preheated oven until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare or 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium.
- Let the tenderloin rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving, which will allow the juices to redistribute.
