This maple glaze was very good and would also taste great on chicken or salmon. The key is to use a good quality real maple syrup. -
Lovely recipe. Something different (and easy) I think the sauce would be good on chicken too. -
This was truly a delicious dish that would be great to serve to company. It was easy to put together and the flavour is terrific! The pork was so moist! I enjoyed this with Recipe #410503 and mixed veggies. Made for Went to the Market tag. Thanks Boomette! :) -
Delicious! The marinade gives the pork a very nice flavor. Each of my pork tenderloins were about a pound a piece so I didn't end of with much marinade left for the sauce. But no worries, I just stirred in some extra maple syrup and mustard in with the wine and it came out perfectly. Thank you for the recipe. Made for Every Day is a Holiday tag. -
I tasted the sauce before I added the butter and thought I didn't like it becasue it was very dijon tasting but AFTER adding the butter and a bit more simmering WOW. LOVED IT. The butter seemed to really bring out the sweetness of the maple syrup Made for Photo Tag and a keeper
