peppercorn sauce
Creamy spiced gravy
Peppercorn sauce is a creamy sauce made with crushed peppercorns, typically green or black, combined with cream, stock, and often brandy or cognac.
It's a classic accompaniment to steak: I'll have the filet with peppercorn sauce.
The sauce balances rich creaminess with the sharp bite of cracked pepper.
