Very Hot Cajun Sauce For Beef 0

Posted on October 24, 2007 by admin

3/4 c Chopped onions

1/2 c Chopped green peppers

1/4 c Chopped celery

1/4 c Vegetable oil

1/4 c + 1 Tbsp all-purpose flour

3/4 ts Ground cayenne pepper

1/2 ts White pepper

1/2 ts Black pepper

2 Bay leaves

1/4 c Minced jalapeno peppers(note

1 ts Minced garlic

3 c Basic beef stock

NOTE: Fresh jalapenos are preferred; if you have to use pickled
ones, rinse as much vinegar from them as possible.
Combine the
onions, bell peppers and celery in a small bowl and set aside while
you start the roux.
(NOTE: Unlike the roux in most other recipes in
this book, the roux we use here is light brown.
Therefore, instead
of heating the oil to the smoking stage, we heat it to only 250F;
this prevents the roux from getting too brown.) In a heavy 2-quart
saucepan heat the oil over medium-low heat to

about 250F.
With a metal whisk, whisk in the flour a little at a
time until smooth.
Continue cooking, whisking constantly, until
roux is light brown, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Be carefyul not to let
the roux

scorch or splash on your skin.
Remove from heat and with a spoon
immediately stir in the vegtable mixture and the red, white and
black peppers; return pan to high heat and cook about 2 minutes,
stirring constantly.
Add the bay leaves, jalapeno peppers and
garlic, stirring well.
Continue cooking about 2 minutes, stirring
constantly.
(We’re cooking the seasonings and vegetables in the
light roux and the mixture should, therefore, be pasty.) Remove
from heat.

boil.
Add the roux mixture by spoonfuls to the boiling stock,

serve immediately.
