How to Make Bordelaise Sauce

Recipe by John Mitzewich from allrecipes.com

Condiment 45 Mins.

Ingredients

6

6 servings

  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • 4 large shallots, peeled and sliced
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 cup red wine
  • 2 cups veal stock
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Gather all ingredients.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add shallots and a pinch of salt; cook and stir shallots until caramelized and browned, about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add red wine and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low; cook until wine is nearly evaporated and pan juices are thick and slightly syrupy. Watch carefully as the mixture burns easily. Add veal stock, return to a simmer, and cook until reduced by half and sauce is slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
  • Pour sauce through a fine mesh strainer set over a container. Tap the strainer with a spoon while straining and squeeze out the last remaining drops of sauce from the residue. Season sauce to taste with salt and black pepper.
