Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium Shallot
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon Black peppercorns
- 1 cup Vegetable broth
- 1 cup Coconut cream
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Tamari or soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Finely chop the shallot and garlic cloves. Crush the black peppercorns using a mortar and pestle until they are coarsely ground.
Heat olive oil in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped shallot and garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the shallots are translucent and soft.
Add the crushed peppercorns to the pan and sauté for another minute to release their aroma.
Pour in the vegetable broth and let it simmer for about 5 minutes until it reduces by half.
Reduce the heat to low and add the coconut cream, stirring continuously to combine.
Stir in the Dijon mustard, tamari, and nutritional yeast. Continue to cook for 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together and the sauce to thicken slightly.
Taste the sauce and season with salt to your preference.
Finely chop the fresh parsley and stir it into the sauce just before serving.
Serve the vegan creamy peppercorn sauce warm over your favorite pasta, vegetables, or plant-based protein. Enjoy!
