Ingredients

  • Demi-glace is a rich brown sauce made by boiling and skimming espagnole sauce and adding white stock or estouffade. It usually has the addition of Madeira, sherry, or a similar wine.

Directions

Boil down to reduce by two-thirds a mixture of 2 cups *espagnol sauce and generous three cups clear brown stock. Remove from the heat, add a scant 1/4 cup Madeira, and strain. A handful of sliced mushroom stalks may be added during cooking.


*espagnole sauce,difficult to make and time consuming. Demi-glace products sold in the gourmet sections of food markets make an acceptable substitute.
