"This is a recipe I came up with when trying to make a Teriyaki sauce that wasn’t overly salty. I prefer using fresh ginger in this recipe but you can use ground ginger, about a teaspoon is plenty. I like keeping ginger root in my freezer at all times, it is so much easier to grate when frozen and the flavour is just as good."

We sure enjoyed this very flavourful tenderloin! I had one tenderloin just shy of one pound, and it cooked it for 20 min covered and 25 min uncovered. It was so juicy and tender. Thanks Bea for sharing!

We though this roast was very tender and flavorful. I only had a one pound roast so I ended up cooking it 20 miuntes covered and 20 minutes uncovered. I also used dry powdered ginger in the marinade and I omitted the sesame seeds completely. I think this marinaded porkloin would be very tasty on the grill too. Made for Billboard tag.
