Buying the New Yorker 1986 - page 49


Without going back to look over everything, I think we may have hit the first ad for something that I purchase with some regularity. I use it for cooking.

Have a recipe that I make a lot:
Take two pork tenderloins, rubbed with salt and pepper.

Sear them in a frying pan, two minutes for the first side, then rotate a quarter turn for another minute until the meat is completely sealed, then put the pork in a roasting pan and heat in a 400 degree oven until cooked through (20-25ish minutes).

Saute a large chopped union in the pan until it starts to turn goldish. Add a cup of dried cherries and a cup of Sandeman's Founders Reserve Port. Stir with a wooden spoon and scrape browned bits from the bottom of the pan until it starts to thicken, and then add in two tablespoons of orange marmalade and three tablespoons of butter. Stir until incorporated.

Pour sauce over Pork and serve.

(If you have leftovers, it goes great on a pizza.)
I also sometimes pour a cup of it in my special lamb stew (it started off as a chili recipe, but I've tweaked it so much that I think it can no longer be defined as chili).

In any event here is the link to Sandeman's. Notice that the Founder's Reserve is "Named in honour of the Founder." Call me a nut, but I'd think that if you wanted to honor someone by naming something after them, you might actually use their name. Unless the name was something like "Joe Dontbuythisport."
