To make it into a poutine        sauce, reduce it by a factor of 2-4 over medium heat.                Bring the stock to a boil in a saucepan.                Combine the fat and flour, cook over high heat,        stirring until you have a pale roux (2-3 minutes).                Add the 2 ts pepper to the roux before adding to the        stock, for an extra-peppery sauce. Floor-sweeping        pepper (the kind sold pre-ground, in bulk) is        preferred by classicists.                Add the fresh ground green peppercorns to the stock        while reducing.                Prior to adding the to stock, dice a small sweet onion        into the saucepan, add the balsamic vinegar, and reduce.                Whip the roux into the stock. Simmer (30-40 min),        skimming the surface every 5-10 minutes. Strain the        sauce through a chinois or strainer lined with        cheesecloth. Salt and pepper to taste.                Keep sauce hot on a side burner.                Deep fry the potato batons in 375ºF/190ºC oil until        golden brown on the outside and creamy, mealy on the        inside. Drain.                Put pommes frites into a shallow bowl and sprinkle        fresh cheddar curds across the potatoes. Top with        sauce/gravy.                Let rest for three minutes or so to allow cheese,        potatoes and gravy to meld and mingle. Salt & pepper        to taste and enjoy.                A Dirty Dave recipe, based on what I had in Southern        Quebec while attending the 1999 Canadian Caper picnic        in Hemmingford, PQ.                Uncle Dirty Dave's Kitchen               MMMMM              ...
