2 tablespoons brown mustard seeds
1/2 teaspoon fennel seed
1 teaspoon coriander seed
1/2 teaspoon cumin seed
1/2 teaspoon whole black peppercorn
1 teaspoon dried thyme
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 lbs pork tenderloin
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons dry white wine
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can chicken stock
1 tablespoon flour
1/2 pint blackberry
2 teaspoons fresh thyme, chopped, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a dry skillet over med heat, place mustard seed, fennel, coriander, cumin, and peppercorns. Keep moving skillet, to keep the seeds from burning; cook until aromatic, about 2 minutes. (mustard seeds will begin to pop).

  • Heat oven to 425°F Rub pork with 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard, sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt and 2 Tbsp spice mixture.; pat with hands to stick. Spray a small roasting pan with cooking spray and place pork in pan.
  • Bake about 25 minutes, transfer to cutting board and let rest covered loosely with foil.
  • Place roasting pan on stove over med-high heat, stir in wine and deglaze the pan. Stir in chicken stock. Cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Whisk together flour and 1/4 cup water, then whisk into the sauce. Whisk in remaining tablespoon Dijon mustard; cook until mixture thickens, 2-3 minutes. Stir in the berries; cook until they begin to soften, about 2 minutes.
  • Slice pork, transfer to a platter, and serve with the sauce. Garnish with fresh thyme if desired.
