Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon minced shallots
- 2 tablespoons green peppercorns packed in brine
- 2 tablespoons butter divided
- 2 tablespoons brandy preferably Cognac
- 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup beef broth preferably homemade
- ½ cup heavy cream
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Set the pan on medium heat and add the oil. Add the shallots, green peppercorns, and 1 tablespoon of the butter. Cook, stirring every now and then, for about 3 minutes, or until the shallots are soft.
- Take it off the heat, add the brandy, and then put it back on the heat. Turn off the heat and let it sit for about one minute.
- Stir the flour in and cook for about one minute, until it is fully absorbed. Turn up the heat to medium-high and add the beef broth. Stir the sauce all the time as it simmers for 3 to 5 minutes, or until it has cut in half.
- Turn the heat down to medium-low and add the cream. It will take about 5 minutes of simmering for the sauce to get thick.
- Add the last tablespoon of butter and mix it in to make it smooth. Add salt.
Notes
- Shallot Elegance: Master the art of sautéing shallots until they transform into a luxurious, golden richness, laying the foundation for a flavor-packed sauce.
- Cognac Chic: Elevate your sauce with a touch of sophistication by opting for high-quality Cognac, imparting a superior brandy essence that amplifies the overall taste experience.
- Flour Finesse: Introduce flour with finesse, gradually incorporating it to achieve a seamlessly smooth texture that defines the sauce’s luxurious consistency.
- Stirring Symphony: Conduct a stirring symphony while the sauce simmers, preventing the emergence of lumps and ensuring an impeccably even thickness throughout.
