Stilton Green Peppercorn Sauce Recipes

STEAKS AND STILTON SAUCE

Steps:

• Thirty minutes before grilling the steaks, remove them from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature. Heat a grill with coals.
• When the coals are hot, spread them out in the grill in one solid layer. Pat the steaks dry on both sides with paper towels and brush each side lightly with olive oil. Sprinkle them liberally with salt and pepper. Place the steaks on the hot grill and sear them on each side for 2 minutes, until browned. Place the lid on the grill and allow the steaks to cook for another 3 to 4 minutes, until they are cooked rare, or 120 degrees on a meat thermometer. (To test the steaks, insert the thermometer sideways to be sure you're actually testing the middle of the steak.) Remove the steaks from the grill, place them in one layer on a platter, and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Allow the steaks to rest at room temperature for 15 minutes. Slice and serve warm with the Stilton Sauce.
• Place the Stilton in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade and blend until finely minced. Add the cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, scallions, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Process until smooth. Serve at room temperature.

STILTON GREEN PEPPERCORN SAUCE

Steps:

• In a bowl cream together the cheese and the butter until the mixture is smooth.
• In a saucepan boil the wine and the peppercorns until the liquid is reduced to about 1 tablespoon.
• Add the cream, and boil the liquid until it is reduced by on half. Reduce the heat to moderately low, whisk the cheese mixture, a little at a time, into the cream mixture, and whisk in the minced parsley.
• Remove the pan from the heat and keep the sauce warm until service.

SHERRIED STILTON AND GREEN PEPPERCORN SPREAD

GREEN PEPPERCORN SAUCE

Steps:

• Add olive oil to pan after removing beef. Add shallots, garlic, and thyme; saute for 1 to 2 minutes, then, off heat, add brandy and flambe using a long kitchen match. After flame dies down, return to the heat, add stock and reduce by about half. Strain out solids, then add 2 cups cream and mustard. Reduce by half again, then shut off heat and add green peppercorns.

PORK CHOPS, WITH GREEN PEPPERCORN SAUCE

Steps:

• Wipe the pork chops dry with paper towels. Dredge them with flour, shaking off the excess, and sprinkle with paprika.
• Heat the oil in a pan large enough to contain the pork chops comfortably. Brown the chops on both sides. Add the onion, garlic and white wine. Bring to simmer, turn heat down, cover and cook slowly for about 30 minutes, or until the chops are pale whitish-pink in the center. Be careful not to overcook them or they will become dry and tough.
• Remove the chops to a heated serving platter. Stir the mustard and peppercorns into the sauce. Add salt and pepper to taste and spoon the sauce over the chops. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

SPAGHETTI WITH GREEN PEPPERCORNS

Steps:

• In a large pot cook the spaghetti in boiling salted water. Drain, discard the water, and return the spaghetti to the pot.
• Chop the peppercorns coarsely.
• Add the olive oil, peppercorns and salt to the pot with the spaghetti. Blend and toss well.
