Twenty years ago, October, James & Elizabeth were married on the dunes in Montauk NY. It was an elegant intimate affair, just immediate family and friends. They hosted the reception themselves and my prepared gift was a filet mignon served with this whiskey butter sauce. No one remembers the temperature that day being cold and cloudy, but everyone remembers this sauce!
Ingredients:
1 small onion, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup whiskey
1 tablespoon whiskey
1/4 cup worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 1/2-3 cups unsalted butter (cold - cut up in pieces)
Directions:
1. Combine onion, garlic, 1/2 cup whiskey, worcestershire, hot pepper sauce, vinegar in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
2. Reduce for 8 to 10 minutes.
3. Over a low heat, whisk in butter, a few pieces at a time.
4. Add last Tbsp whiskey.
5. Sauce consistancy is thin and perfect for a filet mignon or flank steak.
