"Americans, more than any other culture on earth, are cookbook cooks; we learn to make our meals not from any oral tradition, but from a text. The just-wed cook brings to the new household no carefully copied collection of the family's cherished recipes, but a spanking new edition of ‘Fannie Farmer’ or ‘The Joy of Cooking’." |
| John Thorne, American food writer |
He who eats alone chokes alone. |

TO PREPARE THE FILLET, MAKE slits in it and put slivers of garlic in
the slits. Rub well with salt, pepper and Tabasco. Combine the soy
sauce, olive oil, port and herbs and place the fillet in this
marinade in a baking dish for at least 1/2 hour unrefrigerated, or an
hour or more in the refrigerator. Turn several times while it is
marinating. Preheat oven to 425F. Place the fillet on a rack in a
roasting pan. Roast for 30-to-35 minutes, basting occasionally with
the marinade. A meat thermometer should register 120F for very rare,
125F for rare, 130F for medium-rare. After it is removed from the
oven, the internal temperature will rise as much as another 10F.
Allow the fillet to rest, covered with foil, up to 30 minutes. If it
needs to sit longer, you might try a catering trick: Wrap the fillet,
just out of the oven, in plastic wrap. Unwrap just before slicing.
Cut into slices and place on a warm platter; garnish with sprigs of
watercress.
