How to make Steak au Poivre



cooking tips best



Steak au poivre is French cuisine that incorporates coarsely ground peppercorns and beef. The peppercorns create a crust around the steak and give it a pungent flavor. Start by dusting the steak with crushed peppercorns. They bring out the flavor of the beef and add some color. You can add your own flavors to this dish.

Season the steak with some pepper before making the sauce. If you're using fresh peppercorn, it will be best to grind it yourself. You can also use ground black peppercorn. Once you have seasoned the steak, fry it until it attains the desired temperature. Allow the steak to rest for several moments after being seasoned. During this time, the pepper will continue its cooking. Finish the dish by making the sauce with butter, cognac (or butter and shallots), beef broth, heavy cream, and the rest of the ingredients.

How To

How to cook a Steak

The type of meat you are cooking will determine the right method to use. Thicker steaks cook best at low heat. Thicker steaks require higher temperatures.

You should also ensure you don't overcook them because they'll lose flavor. Remember to take your steak out of the oven when it's done. You won't burn.

Cooking times will vary depending on how large the steak is and what degree of doneness you desire. Here are some general guidelines.

Medium Rare: Cook the meat until it reaches medium rare (63°C). This takes between 3 and 5 minutes per side.

Medium: Cook to medium (or until the internal temperature reaches 160degF/71degC). This typically takes 6 minutes per side.

Good Cooking: Cook the meat until it is done. This means that the internal temperature reaches 180F (82C). This normally takes 8 to 12 minutes per side.
