ya well why the freak then you trying to hide the taste ?
:/
Sure, thats something to try too, plain beef sashimi is great with the right cut of meat.
And wholegrain hot mustard
And a lightly stir fried hot salad with wassabe dressing.Mmmm.
Or, for an easy , tasty peppercorn sauce , (i dont much like the flour based sauces, too much hassle, too easy to screw up)
In a saucepan, place a good handfull of black peppercorns, well covered with chicken stock (store boughts fine, homemade is better) and add liberal teaspoons of mixed herbs/oregano/rosemary, whatever you like.
If your using dry herbs, try soaking for a few hours beforehand-fresh, doesnt matter so much, better off throwing them in for the last five minutes or so.
MUCH better off-coriander, parsley, sage etc (drool)
Simmer very slowly for around an hour, topping up chicken stock if need be.
At that point, stir through about a cup of greek style (plain) yoghurt, and about half a cup of full cream,
stir through to heat and combine, 5-10 minutes will usually do.
If you can time it right, its good to actually dump the rare grilled/fried steaks in this for that last 5-10 minutes of cooking time, or conversely pour this stuff over the steaks with about 5 minutes steak cooking time to go, after lowering the heat. (to avoid scorching the dairy ingredients)
I call it "peppercorn madness".
I like steak.
