Red spicy sauce

Hot, perhaps better to say "hot", this sauce gives a warm and enveloping flavor to fattier and more marbled cuts of grilled meat such as: Fiorentina Sashi Gold Dry Aged , Costata Sashi Gold Dry Aged and Picanha Sashi .

Ingredients

• 2 red peppers
• Crumb of 2 milk buns
• ½ glass of red wine vinegar
• 1 shallot
• Spicy paprika
• Hot pepper
• Extra virgin olive oil
• Salt and Pepper To Taste

Method

Soak the breadcrumbs in the vinegar, roast the red peppers on the stove, close them in a paper bag and leave to rest for 15 minutes. Then peel them and remove the seeds, squeeze the crumbs and blend them together with the peppers, hot peppers and the shallot previously cut into pieces.

Pour the mixture into a bowl and, continuing to mix, incorporate a sufficient quantity of extra virgin olive oil to make it soft and homogeneous. Season with salt and season with spicy paprika. And here is a sauce ready to accompany roasted or grilled red meats with a spicy and aromatic touch.

Sweet paprika sauce

This sauce is the sweeter version for those who don't like spicy. It goes perfectly with grilled pork such as chops , grilled beef and grilled chicken . A real treat!

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
• Half onion
• 1 glass of white wine
• 30 g of flour
• 1 cup beef broth

Method

Brown the butter with the finely chopped onion, as soon as it turns golden, add the white wine and let it reduce by half. Prepare a white roux: melt 30g of butter in a saucepan over a low heat. Remove from the heat and add the flour, mixing quickly to avoid the formation of lumps. Place the saucepan back on very low heat and cook for two minutes, stirring constantly. Keep warm.

Pour the white roux into the saucepan with the onions and mix well. Without stopping stirring, add the hot broth little at a time; continue cooking for 10 minutes. Off the heat, stir in the sweet paprika and the remaining flaked butter. Finally, add salt and pepper and serve while still hot.
