    After reading the thread on the perfect steak, I've gone a bit hungry, however in my opinion nothing complements a nice steak better than a light dressing of a good pepper sauce. Some of my friends will make their own, however I normally shamefully go for one of the packet varieties. Has anyone a good (easy recipe) for making a pepper sauce.

    Do you mean pepper sauce as in Tabasco, or pepper sauce as in salt and pepper?

    My recipe:

    Shallots
    Pink Peppercorns
    Green Peppercorns
    Black Peppercorns
    Rosemary
    Thyme
    Red Wine
    Demi Glace/ Good reduced stock
    Creme Fraiche
    Butter


    Smash herbs and shallots, Green & Black peppercorns.
    Throw into hot heavy bottomed saucepan.
    Stir until herbs and pepper releasing scent and shallots blackening in places, don't burn totally or it will be bitter.
    Throw in half a bottle or less of red wine.
    Reduce slowly.
    Strain into another saucepan
    Add demi glace and reduce a litle more.
    Briskly whisk in good knob of butter over low steady heat.
    Whisk in some creme fraiche.
    Stir in a load of Pink Peppercorns. (actually not strictly pepper, but yummier)
    Check for seasoning.
