PORK LOIN WITH FIG AND PORT SAUCE

Steps:

• For the sauce: In a heavy medium saucepan, combine the first 6 ingredients. Boil over medium-high heat until reduced by half, about 30 minutes. Discard the herb sprigs and cinnamon sticks (some of the rosemary leaves will remain in the port mixture). Transfer the port mixture to a blender and puree until smooth. Blend in the butter. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper. (The sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over medium heat before using.)

Roast until an instant read meat thermometer inserted into the center of the pork registers 145 degrees F, turning the pork every 15 minutes to ensure even browning, about 45 minutes total.
• Transfer the pork to a cutting board and tent with foil to keep warm. Let the pork rest 15 minutes. Meanwhile, stir the chicken broth into the roasting pan. Place the pan over medium heat, and scrape the bottom of the pan to remove any browned bits. Bring the pan juices to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

• Plating
• Slice the pork in 1-inch slices and arrange on warm plates (over the lentils if you are serving them. Spoon the topping over the pork and serve.
• Our Taste Notes
• The meaty aroma in the pork is accented by the aged, slightly funky bouquet of the hard salami. Its fatty roundness is cut by the tang of the cornichons. The smooth sweetness of the figs calms down the dish, while onions are a background bulby note, which pulls everything up and adds to the sweetness. Sharp saltiness and spiciness are tempered by the starch in the lentils, which have a little bright floral sweetness cooked into them. A meaty bouquet and salt persist at the finish.
