Pat the pork tenderloin dry and remove silverskin if it's visible. Get out 1 to 1 1⁄2 pounds (0.45 to 0.68 kg) of pork tenderloin and take it out of the package. Pat every side of the tenderloin dry with a paper towel and look for a thin, silver membrane covering the meat. If you see silverskin, remove it or the meat will be tough. Since pork tenderloins are usually smaller cuts of meat, there may be 2 small tenderloins packaged together. Tip: To remove the silverskin, slide the tip of a paring knife under the thin membrane to loosen it. Then, use your hands to pull off the membrane. 3
Sprinkle the tenderloin with salt and pepper. Scatter 1 teaspoon (5.5 g) of kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon (0.5 g) of freshly ground black pepper over the surface of the tenderloin.
