MARINADE

GARNISH

An Oriental sesame-ginger marinade doubles as a dipping sauce for oven-roasted pork tenderloin.

Combine all marinade ingredients. Place pork in a heavy plastic bag and set in a shallow dish. Pour marinade over pork. Seal bag. Turn to coat meat.

Refrigerate overnight turning occasionally. Drain pork, reserving marinade.

Cover and chill marinade. Place pork on a rack in a roasting pan; cover with foil. Bake at 450F 20 minutes. Remove foil; roast 10-15 minutes or until thermometer inserted in center registers 160F. To grill pork arrange medium-hot coals around a drip pan in a covered grill. Test for medium heat above the pan. Place pork on grill rack over drip pan. Cover and grill 30-45 minutes or until thermometer inserted in center registers 160F. Cool slightly; bias-slice into ¼" slices. Cover and chill up to 24 hours. To serve arrange pork slices on lettuce-lined platter. Heat marinade to boiling; serve in a small bowl for dipping and sprinkle with green onion strips. Serve with baguette slices and red and green grapes. Makes 30 slices.
