7 Day A1 Steak Sauce

Directions

Put all of the dry ingredients into a blender or spice/coffee grinder and blend into a fine powder.

Heat in a small saucepan along with half of the vinegar. Add all ingredients except the tabasco, wines and kitchen bouquet.

Bring to a boil then reduce heat to a very low simmer.

Simmer for 1 hour, adding the remaining vinegar a little at a time as the mixture reduces.

Stir in the remaining ingredients (red pepper sauce, wines and kitchen bouquet) and cook for an additional 3 minutes.

Remove from the heat and allow to cool.

Place the sauce into a crock or other non-reactive container and let stand for 7 days.

After standing, strain through a cheesecloth lined sieve at least six times.

Store in a jar or bottle with a tightly fitting cap.

Keep refrigerated indefinitely. Freeze to keep for years.
