This recipe is for the rich because a lot of what goes into the recipe is thrown away either in the garbage or down the drain. It requires one bottle of wine, 2 quarts of chicken stock, and vegs that are thrown into the sauce to add flavor but then are discarded when the cooking is finished. There aren't many people who can put $12-15 into the garbage.
I made it and I don't see what all the fuss was about. Tender pork could be made without all the extra stuff like twine to tie it together or leeks and shallots for the sauce which turned out salty as hell although I used chicken boullion so that may have had something to do with the sauce.
It was fun to make because there aren't many recipes that require reduction of sauces or to use twine, so the recipe offers a challenge and I am a sucker for culinary challenges but tastewise and economically, I'm not going to venture down this path again for this or similar recipes.
