AuPoivresauce

INGREDIENTS

2 tbsp. unsalted butter

2 small shallots, minced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbsp. toasted & crushed

peppercorns

¼ cup brandy

2 tsp. beef base

(concentrated beef broth)

½ quart heavy cream

Roux to thicken

1 tsp. Dijon mustard

Salt to taste

Chopped parsley to garnish

DIRECTIONS

Heat a sauté pan over medium heat. When the pan is hot, add the butter. When the butter has melted, add the shallots and garlic. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until they are nearly translucent, about 2 minutes. Raise the heat and add the pepper, beef base and brandy to the pan. Bring to a boil and reduce by half. Add the cream and bring back to a boil. Adjust seasoning and thicken to just nappe (thick enough to coat the back of a spoon) with a bit of roux. Off the heat add the Dijon. Garnish with chopped parsley.

The golf course has been responding nicely over the last couple of weeks since having full pressure back in the irrigation system. It will be ready to host the Men’s Club Championship this weekend presenting a firm and fast test.
