How to Make Stilton Green Peppercorn Sauce

  1. In a medium bowl, cream together 4 ounces Stilton cheese (crumbled) and 2 tablespoons unsalted butter until completely smooth.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine ½ cup dry white wine and 1 teaspoon green peppercorns. Bring to a boil and reduce until the liquid is reduced to about 1 tablespoon. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Add ½ cup heavy cream to the reduced wine mixture. Bring to a boil and reduce by half, about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.
  4. Reduce heat to low. Whisk the cheese mixture into the cream mixture gradually, a little at a time, ensuring a smooth, creamy consistency. Stir in 1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley.
  5. Remove from heat and keep the sauce warm until ready to serve. Stir gently before serving.
