Sauce Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Base

    In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped shallots and sauté until they are translucent, about 2-3 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add the Cognac

    Carefully pour in the cognac and bring to a boil. Allow it to simmer for about 5 minutes, letting the alcohol cook off and the flavors meld.

  3. 3

    Incorporate the Cream

    Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Let the mixture simmer gently for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. 4

    Add Pepper and Salt

    Crush the black peppercorns slightly and add them to the sauce along with salt. Stir to combine and let simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from heat and serve immediately over your choice of steak or grilled meats.
