Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a food processor, pulse the eggs until slightly foamy, about 5 times. With the machine running, pour the oil through the feed tube a few drops at a time. When about 1 cup has been added and the sauce starts to thicken, pour a little faster, in a slow, steady stream, until the oil has been incorporated.

  2. Step 2

    Add the sardines and 2 tablespoons of the peppercorns. Pulse to combine, about 10 times. Add the vinegar and salt, and pulse to combine.

  3. Step 3

    Scrape the sauce into a medium bowl, and stir in the remaining peppercorns.
