  • Steak Au Poivre and Pepper Cream Sauce
    Steak au Poivre and Pepper Cream Sauce Ingredients Steak for each person (you know which cut and how much you want. We each prefer a 4 oz. filet mignon, but it is your call.) Salt to taste 4 T black peppercorns, ground fresh 1 T olive oil 1 C brown sauce (see preparation below) 1/3 C brandy 3/4 C heavy cream Salt and pepper to taste Preparation Grind the black peppercorns into a plate. Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel and lightly salt each steak. Then roll each steak in the pepper on each side. In a hot pan (we use an iron skillet), add the olive oil and lay the steaks in the hot pan carefully. Cook to rare (or how you like it), then remove, cover to keep warm and set aside while making the pan sauce. Deglaze the skillet with the brandy and flambe. This can be exciting, so stand back and keep a lid handy if needed! Scape the bottom of the pan to incorporate the meat juices and pepper that was left behind. Add the brown sauce and reduce to desired thickness. Add the cream stirring constantly until heated. Adjust the seasoning and pour over the steak. BROWN SAUCE Ingredients Yellow onion and shallot, chopped finely 2 T Olive oil 1 C beef broth 1/4 C white wine 1 T Worcestershire Sauce 1 T Kitchen Bouquet A pat a butter Preparation Saute the onion and shallot in the olive oil. When soft and tender, deglaze with the wine. Add the broth and Worcestershire sauce, simmer to reduce.

  • Relish Range Mr Wilkinson
    RELISH RANGE MR WILKINSON Matt Wilkinson hails from the rolling pastures and industrial jungle of Barnsley, South Yorkshire in northern England. Charming and ever-so-modest, Matt’s foodie muscles were carved under Michelin-starred chef Martin Wishart before arriving in Australia where he worked at Vue de monde and Circa. In 2010, he and business soulmate Ben Foster opened Pope Joan in East Brunswick, Melbourne - a neighbourhood café by day and casual eatery by night. Pope Joan now has a produce store and takeaway hub, Hams and Bacon, nestled alongside which offers products from Matt’s favourite producers and now his very own range of comestibles to slather on top. His first book, ‘Mr Wilkinson’s Favourite Vegetables’, was published in 2012 and has since been translated into nine languages and sold 100,000 copies worldwide. His second book is due for release in early 2015. ABOUT MR WILKINSON’S PRODUCTS Pope Joan chef and co-owner Matt Wilkinson has released his first range of Mr Wilkinson’s pantry products, The Relish Range, which includes six delicious products: Red Sauce, Brown Sauce, Tomato Kasundi, Ploughman’s Pickle, Pineapple Chutney and Piccalilli. The Mr Wilkinson’s range is locally made by, Cunliffe and Waters (one of Australia’s leading handmade preserving companies) using Matt’s own recipes. “The first range of Mr Wilkinson’s products features my favourite relishes made from recipes that we use at Pope Joan including our infamous brown sauce,” says Matt Wilkinson. This has been a favourite with Mr Wilkinson’s Piccalilli is a Pope Joan regulars since day hearty mix of cauliflower, one, on the classic Pope Joan kohl rabi, zucchini, onions sandwich: egg, bacon, brown and gherkins cooked in a sauce.

Cookery is considered to be both an art and science. The art of cooking is ancient. The first cook was a primitive man, who had put a chunk of meat close to the fire, which he had lit to warm himself. He discovered that the meat heated in this way was not only tasty but it was also much easier to masticate. From this moment, in unrecorded past, cooking has evolved to reach the present level of sophistication. Humankind in the beginning ate to survive.

  • Technique of the Quarter: Examining Sauces
    TECHNIQUE OF THE QUARTER: EXAMINING SAUCES Sauces are often considered one of the greatest tests of a chef’s skill. The successful pairing of a sauce with a food demonstrates technical expertise, an understanding of the food, and the ability to judge and evaluate a dish’s flavors, textures, and colors. THE PURPOSE OF SAUCES Most sauces have more than one function in a dish. A sauce that adds a counterpoint flavor, for example, may also introduce textural and visual appeal. Sauces generally serve one or more of the following purposes. Introduce Complementary or Contrasting Flavors Sauces add flavor to a dish. That flavor can be similar to the flavor of the food you are serving it with. For instance, you might choose a velouté made with chicken stock to serve with a chicken breast dish and one made with shellfish stock to serve with a shrimp dish. Choosing a sauce with a similar base flavor tends to complement and intensify the flavor of the main item. On the other hand, you can choose a sauce that adds a contrasting flavor. A good example would be a red wine sauce that introduces some bright and acidic flavors to a dish that features beef. The contrast between rich, savory beef flavors and the sharp taste of the wine makes the beef stand out. Add Moisture A sauce can add moisture to naturally lean foods such as poultry, fish. A sauce can also compensate for the drying effect of certain cooking techniques, especially broiling, grilling, sautéing, and roasting. Grilled foods may be served with a warm butter emulsion sauce like béarnaise or with compound butter.
