Best 6 Sherried Stilton And Green Peppercorn Spread Recipes

PAN SEARED STRIP STEAK WITH GREEN PEPPERCORN SAUCE AND SALT-BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• For the steaks: Heat 2 cast iron skillets large enough to hold 2 of the 4 pieces of beef until they begin to visibly smoke. Season the steaks on both sides with salt and pepper. Shut the heat off underneath the skillet and use a pair of tongs to place the steaks in the pan 1 by 1 in a single layer. Turn the heat on under the skillet and brown the first side, 3 to 5 minutes. Try to resist the temptation to turn them over or move them as they cook.
• Turn the steaks on the second side and brown, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Arrange the steaks on a rack to "rest" while you make your sauce.
• Remove the excess grease from 1 of the pans that was used to cook the steaks and reserve the other pan for the potatoes. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and the shallots and cook until they are translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the green peppercorns and brandy and cook until the liquid reduces almost completely.
• Stir in the mustard, lemon juice, lemon zest and Worcestershire sauce. Swirl the pan so all of the flavors start to meld together.
• Add the veal stock and reduce to a desirable consistency, then stir in the tarragon.
• For the potatoes:
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Add the potatoes to a casserole with a fitted lid that is just big enough to hold the potatoes. Toss them with some sea salt and the bay leaves. Cover the casserole and put in the center of the oven to bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
• When the potatoes are tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, remove the casserole from the oven and discard the bay leaves.
• Heat the reserved skillet that the steaks were cooked in over medium heat and add the potatoes into the steak drippings. Cook until they brown and become slightly crisp. slightly. Season with salt, to taste.
• Arrange the potatoes on the bottom of 4 dinner plates and top with the steak. Drizzle with the sauce and serve immediately.

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.

SHERRIED STILTON AND GREEN PEPPERCORN SPREAD

Steps:

• In a food processor blend the Stilton, the cream cheese, the peppercorns to taste, the Sherry, and salt and pepper to taste until the mixture is smooth and transfer the spread to crocks or ramekins. The spread keeps, covered and chilled, for 1 week. Serve the spread with crackers.

POTTED STILTON

Steps:

• Put the stilton, 100g of the butter and sherry in a bowl. Season with a few grinds of black pepper, then mash together well with a fork until smooth. Spoon the mixture into a large, sterilised ramekin or ceramic pot.
• Melt the remaining butter in a small pan. Spoon over the cheese mixture, making sure it's completely sealed. Top with a few green peppercorns and chill for a minimum of 2 hrs, or for up to 2 months.

BLISTERED GREEN PEPPERS WITH SHERRY VINEGAR

Steps:

• If using bell peppers, peel with a vegetable peeler. Steam whole peppers for about 8 minutes, just until softened. Set aside until cool enough to handle, then remove stems and seeds, working gently to limit breakage. Cut peppers into large pieces and set aside to dry on paper towels. (Recipe can be made up to 8 hours in advance.)
• Just before serving, heat fat in a large skillet (not nonstick) over high heat. Add peppers and stir-fry until skins blister and brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a large serving dish and sprinkle with vinegar, salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings. If desired, sprinkle with coriander. Serve immediately or at room temperature, as an appetizer or side dish.
